After the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump, the leader of the Teamsters, Sean O'Brien, addressed the Republican National Convention, causing a mix of reactions.
Historically, the Teamsters supported the Republican Party under Jimmy Hoffa's leadership, diverging from the common association of organized labor with Democrats.
The decline in Teamsters' power can be traced back to legislation like the Motor Carrier Act of 1980, impacting truckers' wages and weakening union membership in the industry.
