STATEMENT BY THE OFFICE AND PROFESSIONAL EMPLOYEES INTERNATIONAL UNION (OPEIU), AFL-CIO, IN STRONG SUPPORT OF TIM WALZ FOR VICE PRESIDENT

  • 6 August 2024

OPEIU announces its strong support of Vice President Kamala Harris’ choice of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate.

Walz enhances the ticket's pro-labor bona fides. As governor, Walz signed into law paid sick and medical leave, banned non-compete agreements and provided a raise for rideshare drivers in the state. A former public school teacher and union member, Walz's experience, track record and background make him a strong choice to work alongside Harris.

OPEIU stands behind the Harris-Walz ticket and commits itself to working to defeat Donald Trump and J.D. Vance and their anti-worker “Project 2025” agenda.

STATEMENT OF THE OFFICE AND PROFESSIONAL EMPLOYEES INTERNATIONAL UNION (OPEIU), AFL-CIO, ON UNFAIR LABOR PRACTICE CHARGE AGAINST ZP BETTER TOGETHER

  • 5 August 2024
The Office and Professional Employees International Union (OPEIU), AFL-CIO, representing approximately 90,000 workers across the United States and Canada, filed an unfair labor practice (ULP) charge Friday against ZP Better Together for their unlawful layoff of 50 workers in February just as workers were meeting with a union and had been organizing against an onerous arbitration agreement. We urge ZP Better Together to rehire those laid-off workers without delay and provide back pay to ensure their intimidatory action doesn't continue to have a chilling effect on labor organizing.
