	Jimmy Hoffa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hoffa rapidly advanced through the ranks of the Teamsters union, which organized truckers throughout the Midwest and then nationwide through skillful use of quickie strikes, secondary boycotts and other means of leveraging union strength at one company to organize workers and win contract demands at others.
		Several Teamster chapter presidents were convicted for mob related crimes but often would continue serving as union leaders, such as Antonio 'Tony Pro' Provenzano in New Jersey.
		Hoffa was planning to sue to invalidate that restriction in order to reassert his power over the Teamsters when he disappeared at around 2:30pm on July 30, 1975 from the parking lot of the Machus Red Fox Restaurant in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit.
