Message from the

Dear Brothers and Sisters:
As we inch towards some sense of normalcy, we must not forget the role Teamsters played in getting us

beyond proud of our rank-and-file members. You never took the path of least resistance. You showed up
and gave 110% every day to make sure all of us had the goods and services we needed to survive.
That has not been the same for many employers. Some did the right thing; recognizing you for the true
heroes you are. But others showed just how greedy they are. These employers need to be held account-
able. And that will happen at the negotiating table.
“I am beyond As I write this, most events in Massachusetts remain virtual. While we were not able to hold our

In closing, this is an exciting time for us. We have a United States President and administration not
afraid to use the word union. Not afraid to embrace organized labor. Not afraid to invest in people and
help those industries that were crushed in 2020. This administration has acknowledged the fact that
the middle class and unions built this country and because of that our pensions will remain solvent
through 2051. That means people can retire with dignity and respect. I’m excited about the future of
this country. I’m excited about the future of the Teamsters.

After my last report, the organizing
department sat down to outline
our goals for 2021 and develop our
plan for growth. After some strategy
sessions and lengthy discussions, we
decided to focus on two main goals
for this upcoming year. The first
is to organize in our core industries to capture more market
share, which drives up bargaining power for our existing
members. The second is to create a new industry for Local 25.
We have begun executing this plan, and it has proven to be
effective and fruitful.
The school bus industry will be our core focus for 2021.
At first glance, we identified 47 cities and towns in Local 25’s

Marc Gautreau’s name was added to the Memorial Stone
that sits in front of the union hall. A longtime member of
Local 25, Gautreau was killed October 3, 2019, after injuries
sustained in a motor vehicle accident while at work delivering
for UPS. He was 51-years-old and a 17-year Teamster UPS
member. He began as a UPS package sorter and worked his
way up to a package carrier.
“Marc’s name is now engraved on the Teamsters Local 25
Memorial Stone, joining other Teamsters Local 25 workers
that have died on the job,” said Secretary-Treasurer Tom
Mari. “The memorial stone stands tall as a tribute to these
workers, but also as a call to action to never forget their
sacrifices. People like Marc are the reason we fight – and will
continue to fight – for better and safer working conditions.”
Later in the day, Teamsters Local 25 Trustee and Workers'
Memorial Day Committee Co-Chair, John Joseph Juszkiewicz,
III, represented Local 25 at the MassCOSH Workers' Memorial
Day tribute at the Massachusetts State House.
