Local 671 Teamsters Union

CLOSED: Member Organizing Hiring

The hiring of Member Organizers for Local 671 has closed. We appreciate all members who expressed interest.

Two hundred fifty years ago this week, this country was declared on paper. Every year since, it’s been built by hand — in yards and warehouses, behind the wheel before sunrise, so kids make it to school on time. Mechanics, dispatchers, warehouse hands, freight drivers keeping things moving while everybody else is still asleep.

Nobody handed us this country. Generations of workers drove it, loaded it, fixed it, and fought for every right we’re proud to have as Americans.

Happy 4th of July from Teamsters Local 671.

CONTRACT WIN: ALL-STAR PROSPECT TEAMSTERS RATIFY FIRST CONTRACT

On May 28th, All-Star Prospect school bus drivers, STV drivers, and monitors ratified their first contract!

These school bus workers organized with our union in January 2026, the tenth All-Star group to do so.

“It’s been an incredibly fulfilling process getting our first contract into place,” said Kellie Gambino, All-Star Prospect monitor and  Bargaining Committee member. “I’m so glad I could contribute to creating a better workplace for everybody who works alongside me.”

“Witnessing first hand just how powerful we the workers are when we stand together is nothing short of magical,” said Stephanie Loso, All-Star Prospect driver and Organizing Committee member. “We have always known our labor is valuable, this contract proves that the employers do too.”

“All-Star Prospect is our tenth contract with All-Star Transportation, and we didn’t get here by accident,” said Anthony Lepore, Local 671 Principal Officer. “School bus workers across Connecticut are voting Union Yes and ratifying contracts because they know what Teamsters representation delivers. We’re building standards that lift every yard, and we’re not done.”

Some contract highlights include:
- Wages: $36.25/hour for school bus drivers, $31/hour for STV drivers, $28/hour for monitors in a 4 year progression
- Participation in the New England Teamsters Pension
- Health insurance with Teamsters 671 Silver Plan
