Nope. It was FDX and UAL that killed the dues reduction.

Our dues rate should be lowered....ALPA survived just fine on dues paid during bankruptcy when we were all earning far less. They take in far more now under our current rates. I know they need money to help the pilots of our competitors (LOL), but shouldn't our dues rate be reduced now?
Yes. 1% is more than enough.

Long past time for a top to bottom review.

Same fat cats been at the trough for far too long.

Why should they fly the line, they have pensions?

[QUOTE=TonyC;2403990]All you ALPA budget experts need to do is attend a Local Council meeting, introduce a resolution, and muster the votes to get it passed.

The ALPA Constitution & By-Laws does not recognize APC posts as Action Items.

I know, amazing, right?!?!?

Actually the Delta MEC is and has been leading the charge to lower dues.

United and others have blocked us.

1% is more than enough.
