May escape suspension if receiver named
The Teamsters Union faces potential suspension from the AFL-CIO as a court considers appointing a receiver to run the union amid a corruption probe. Hoffa was elected president but a federal judge ordered a hearing on the convention’s legality. If a receiver is named, the AFL-CIO council may push to suspend or expel the union’s largest affiliate, while Hoffa and Beck are already branded corrupt by the council. A Monday hearing will determine whether to convert the restraining order into a preliminary injunction.
