By Doug Cunningham

The Teamsters are launching a campaign to fire Transportation Secretary, Mary Peters for her role in defying Congress by allowing Mexican trucks onto U.S. highways. The Teamsters are running a radio ad as part of the radio campaign.

[Teamsters Spot]: “President Bush’s Secretary of Transportation, Mary Peters, is breaking the law by allowing unsafe Mexican trucks onto U.S. highways.”

Teamsters President, Jim Hoffa says it's a disgrace that Peters is still in office, after she's defied the will of the American people by exposing them to dangerous trucks from Mexico.
