Johanna Brenner interviews two Portland UPS workers about how 350,000 UPS workers nationally are preparing for a strike and how Portland Teamsters are organizing. The contract between the Teamsters Union and UPS expires July 31 and so far the company is not budging.  Neither is the union. Find out what the key issues are for UPS workers, how they are preparing to strike, and why this fight is crucial for the entire US labor movement.
