I don’t know that the consequences are going to go much further than to make our council the subject of much eye rolling, but I have a feeling they’re going to pack that meeting like an AARP convention & get a big yes vote.

Impassioned debate on both sides, lots of proxies. In favor of age 67 went down by about 2/3, in favor of keeping 65 approved by about the same margin.
No idea how it might go in other councils. Good luck!

I’m sure the scabs and other self-serving pilots who only care about themselves will be out in full force. Too bad it will die at the MEC level.

most LECs will vote against the increase to 67
and our MEC should do what majority wants

As soon as possible. No way I want to be here when I’m 65.
But this is about money, plain and simple. Scabs who have spent their careers doing whatever it takes to get ahead are now throwing a Hail Mary to try and keep ahead. It’s the slow creep. 67 will turn to 70, then to 75. A scab knows no limits when it comes to just far they’ll go to get theirs.
