We continue to follow the political battle between UPS and FedEx on a provision passed by the House last month that, according to Alan Caruba of the Canadian Free Press, would “hobble Federal Express”. Again, this legislation would change the labor laws under which FedEx operates and, according to some, would allow a small number of workers in one city to “hamstring much of the nation’s overnight delivery service.” Caruba makes a number of other interesting observations which you can check out by reading the entire article. You can do this by clicking the Canadian Free Press link above.
