 Oct.15, 2025 | STRIKES | Teamsters have won their nationwide strike against Republic Services after members of Local 728 in Cumming, Ga., voted to ratify a record-setting contract with the multibillion-dollar waste giant. “Republic’s greed and arrogance were no match for Teamsters’ strength and solidarity,” said Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien. “The company tried to drag out this strike, torment our members, and disrupt communities. But our members never blinked…” The strike began in early July when Republic Services forced more than 500 Teamsters to walk off the job at Local 25 in Boston; Local 179 in Ottawa, Ill.; Local 252 in Lacey, Wash.; Local 439 in Stockton, Calif.; and Local 728 in Cumming, Ga.
