Get the inside scoop…
Joe Brock was literally born into the Teamsters union. His father was a top ranked union leader most of his life, and raised Joe on the picket lines and in the union halls. Joe eventually joined the ranks of union members, becoming an officer, a spokesman, a published writer, and eventually the President of his large local.
Joe finally realized that the rhetoric he heard in the union halls and in organizing campaigns had very little to do with unions’ true agenda. Today, Joe works on behalf of workers across the country, giving them the inside scoop on how a union really operates, so that they can make an informed decision when it comes time to cast their vote in a union election.

Whether to unionize is an extremely important decision. If voted in, a union would speak for you regarding all terms and conditions of your employment, including:
- your current and future pay
- the cost and structure of your health and other insurance plans, retirement plan and other benefits you currently enjoy
- your holidays, vacation and other forms of paid and unpaid leave
- whether many employment-related decisions are based on your merit, or simply upon your date of service
- whether you will have union dues deducted from your paycheck, and how much?
- the potential for strikes and possible permanent replacement during an economic strike
