I also did not like rumor running around about the dues structure. If that one passes, lets just say it will be ugly for ALPA.

Most LEC's do not have offices per se, Some do like C44, but more LEC's use the space that their MEC has. If they want to save that money it may be a good idea, but it needs to be discussed.

I also heard that they Reps wanted to see the actual proposal but had not gotten a copy of it a few weeks ago. Did that change?
Heyas ACL,

DTW has 2,000 pilots. Their "office" is hardly more than a closet.

Get rid of one rep, and you have 1 rep per 1,000 pilots...WAY more than any other rep in ALPA.
