Give money to a PAC that actually has this on their agenda. ALPA's PAC has been funded strongly by its members for many decades now. Reforming the RLA and the NMB is not even mentioned in anything I read from ALPA or the ALPA PAC. If I've missed it, I trust you'll show me.

No, we ALPA pilots are reaping the results of giving our money to a PAC that does not have reforming the RLA or the NMB on their agenda. The only cynics are the apologists like yourself that advocate giving money to the ALPA PAC which is only interested in re-electing far left politicians. How's that working out for us?
