(Wilmington, DE) – Today, a Teamster shareholder proposal calling on the Board of Directors of Con-Way, Inc. [NYSE: CNW] to amend the company’s governance documents to declassify board of director elections by providing that all director nominees take part in annual elections received support from both a majority of the shares cast as well as the shares outstanding in the Company.
