Chicago Teamsters reject Rahm Emanuel’s bid for contract concessions on 461-11 vote

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

Already feuding with police, firefighters, teachers and other public employees, Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s administration sought but failed to win concessions this week from the only major labor group that had supported Emanuel’s election.

Teamsters union members overwhelmingly rejected a proposal from the mayor’s office, which went down by a 461-11 margin at a meeting Thursday, sources told the Chicago Sun-Times.

Great moments of one party rule.
