IBT Constitution and Bylaws...
"SECTION 19: MEMBERSHIP
19.D.4
(4). No member shall engage in dual unionism or espouse dual unionism or disaffiliation, or be a party to any activity to secure the disestablishment of the Local Union as the collective bargaining agent for any employee.”
The operable word in the above sentence would be "member". Frontier employees almost 700 pilots, approximately 12 pilots have joined the IBT. The remaining 90% are free to do as they wish with regard to representation (and we are doing as we wish).
I am espousing. I am disaffiliating. I am a party of many activities to secure the disestablishment of the Local Union as the collective bargain agent. Proud of it, in fact.
