Why would they? They're a private company, the government has absolutely zero business interfering in a labor dispute with private companies, unless of course they want to acknowledge that they do have power over private businesses like these to regulate them. In which case they should fucking nationalize them and throw the execute board in jail.

They interfered when the rail workers went on strike, why wouldn't they interfere with UPS? They're both logistics corporations, and the whole point with the rail strike interference was to keep goods moving to where they need to be.
