Political action is an important part of Teamsters Local 320’s mission to protect and advance the interests of working people. Through Joint Council 32’s DRIVE (Democrat, Republican, Independent Voter Education) program, active and retired Teamster members support pro-worker candidates through volunteer efforts and financial contributions. DRIVE helps mobilize Teamsters and their families to engage in the political process, support endorsed candidates, and advocate for policies that strengthen wages, benefits, workplace protections, and retirement security. By partnering with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters’ National DRIVE program and Joint Council 32 DRIVE, Local 320 helps amplify the voice of working families on key legislative issues at both the state and federal levels.

Teamsters Local 320 is focused on one mission: ensuring that the voices of working members are heard clearly at the Minnesota State Capitol. This year’s legislative priorities reflect the real concerns members raise and the union’s commitment to turning those concerns into action.
Member Voices Driving Change
What sets Local 320’s legislative priorities apart is its foundation in member experience. These priorities are not abstract policy goals; they come directly from conversations on the shop floor, in break rooms, and in the field. By organizing, advocating, and engaging in the political process, Teamsters Local 320 members are ensuring that lawmakers understand the real-world impact of their decisions.
Teamsters Local 320 stands ready to work with lawmakers from both parties to advance policies that strengthen workers, families, and communities across Minnesota. With a clear agenda and a united membership, Local 320 will continue bringing the voices of our members to the Capitol, where they belong.
