I will never apologize for standing up for my fellow Teamsters and all American workers.

We vote - if the public votes 50 percent, we vote 70 percent. So we have a bigger impact with our numbers, and the organization and the manpower we can bring to a race.

If we're all together, we have money, and we start to organize, you're going to see the Teamsters Union start to bloom.

We didn't start this war - the right wing did. We're tired of seeing good-paying jobs shipped overseas. This fight is about the economy, it's about jobs and it's about rebuilding America.

The mob's not coming back in the Teamsters Union. We've gotten rid of them, and we're free to be free of government supervision.

What's going on in this country? Unions stand against those trends. We've got to somehow insulate the robust American economy from this global economy that seems to want to devour our standard of living.

It's a success story here in Michigan. We have hiring going on. We have new industries going on.
