Transportation Trades Department, AFL–CIO

[4] The effort received a boost two decades later when Richard I. Kilroy, President of the Brotherhood of Railway and Airline Clerks, and James Kennedy, President of the Transportation Communication Union, began advocating for a new, unified transportation trades department after the abolition of the Railway Employees Department in 1980.[9] Shea's term of office ended in 1995, and Ron Carey, President of the Teamsters, was elected to take his place.[10] But Carey was expelled from the Teamsters in July 1998 by federal government monitors after allegedly accepting illegal donations for his Teamsters re-election campaign,[11] and Sonny Hall, President of the Transport Workers Union of America (TWU), was elected TTD president.[10] Hall retired at the end of his five-year term in 2003, and Edward Wytkind was elected president of the Transportation Trades Department.Following Larry Willis' death in November 2021, serving Secretary Treasurer Greg Regan was unanimously elected president of the Transportation Trades Department.
