International Brotherhood of Teamsters

Ernest Tusino was elected chief executive officer of Local 170 in Worcester in 1988 but was ousted eight years later for publicly endorsing James Hoffa in the 1996 general election. A court judge found the Teamsters action against Tusino was a purposeful and deliberate attempt to suppress dissent within the union. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit has awarded Tusino a $1.3 million settlement. (Feb-28-06) [METRO WAST DAILY NEWS]
