The Teamsters’ new international president is urging Washington’s governor to veto a bill one of his local affiliates forged with Uber Technologies Inc. and Lyft Inc., a potential setback for the ride-hail companies’ efforts to secure deals shielding their business models.
“This will be the model that sets the tone for the entire country,” said Sean O’Brien, who was sworn in as international president of the Teamsters union last week. “We’ve got to make sure we do it right.”
