White House applauds tentative UPS, Teamsters contract agreement

President Biden is applauding news that UPS and the Teamsters Union have come to terms on a new contract. The White House is breathing a sigh of relief after getting word of the deal, which still has to be ratified by union members. With a possible UPS strike just days away, there was real concern inside the administration about the economic impact of a walkout. In a statement, President Biden said the tentative agreement is a better deal for workers and will also add to the country’s economic momentum.
