		<description>Additional, it should be noted how FedEx operates differently from UPS. The  main reason that the unionized UPS is still competitive with FedEx is because they utilize a single integrated network for air and ground packages. A single UPS driver can deliver and pickup both air and ground packages. FedEx operates two separate networks for air and ground packages including separate hubs, delivery centers and drivers. However, their lower labor costs make up for their lower operating efficiency and economy of scale. FedEx will be forced to raise rates to remain competitive. They may be forced to consolidate their air and ground networks similar to UPS. Five percent annual rate increases is already the norm. Vote no to HR 915.</description>

		<description>I have yet to hear how unions, or unionization, will improve the employer&#039;s business via competitive advantage, quality of service, product development, etc. OR how the union or unionization will improve the customer experience. That is the fundamental issue with unions, they are only fcoused on those things that improve the workers experience with no concern for how the market will treat their employer.</description>
