Teamsters try to block Webster
Article Abstract:
The Teamsters union has protested the appointment of William Webster, former head of the FBI and CIA, to a new anticorruption review board. The teamsters complain that Webster is on the board of Anheuser-Busch Cos Inc, an employer with whom the Teamsters have contracts. They claim that Webster has a conflict of interest and should not be a member of a panel with oversight responsibilities over the Teamsters.
