We are proud to share that Teamsters Local 916 had a strong and successful Lobby Day at the Illinois State Capitol! Our dedicated members came together to advocate for key legislation that directly impacts the safety, retirement, and future of hardworking Illinois Teamsters.
Our conversations with lawmakers focused on:
✅ SB 2 / HB 2711 – Fair Retirement & Recruitment Act (Fix Tier 2)
✅ SB 2108 – Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program Compliance Unit
✅ SB 1591 – Leader Follower Work Zone Vehicles (Autonomous Vehicles)
A HUGE thank you to all the Teamster Locals who stood in solidarity with us and helped make our voices louder. Your support strengthens our message and helps drive real change for workers across the state.
