Default ALPA Magazine Aricle

Just got my March Issue of the ALPA magazine. Page 37 has a full page article on the impact of sequestration quoting such unbiased sources as Rep. Nita Lowney (D-N.Y.), Ray LaHood, U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary, Paul Rinaldi, NATCA President, and a source from the Obama Administration. According to this article, if sequestration is allowed to happen, the airline industry and the economy could be devestated and could grind to a halt. I thought we donated to the PAC to cover the cost of getting such slanted news out to the world and our dues money was not to be used for this sort of thing.
Why did the ALPA magazine not seek out some other individuals for a more balanced perspective on this issue? Guess that was a dumb question!!!
