One of the nation's largest unions, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters,

says it won't make an endorsement in the 2024 presidential election, choosing

not to throw the union support behind either Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald

Trump.

It's the first time the union has skipped an endorsement in a presidential race since 1996,

having supported the Democratic nominee in each election since.

We're joined now by Teamsters General President Sean O'Brien.

Thanks for coming in, we appreciate it.

Thank you very much, sir.

So you said one of the reasons why the Teamsters are withholding an endorsement

is because neither candidate was able to make serious

commitments to your union.

There are Democrats who will look at what the Biden Harris administration has already

done,

including directing a $36 billion bailout

to rescue union pension plans,

teamsters pension plans from insolvency

and wonder what more of a commitment do you need?

Well, listen, that's a great point.

President Biden in this administration

did fix 300 pension funds that were critically

in declining and on the verge of insolvency.
