I contacted United Parcel Service Chairman and CEO James Kelly and Teamsters President Ron Carey today. I spoke to both parties privately by telephone this afternoon and urged them both to go back to the bargaining table. These talks are important both for the one in 400 American workers who work directly for UPS as well as for the company itself, and for countless other businesses, workers and families who are directly and indirectly affected by negotiations. Federal mediation services continue to be available to both parties.
