The Representatives of the Delta pilots are called to task because they the have the ability and responsibility to advance the interests of the Delta pilots.
Lowering the standard for Delta pilots in exchange for pay concessions was a result of various violations of the ALPA Constitution and Administrative Manual. It is the responsibility of Delta's Representatives to enforce these provisions in our governing documents. The task falls very specifically on the desk of our MEC Chairman. Once our new Chair settles in, I will try to schedule some time with him.
Pinnacles deal is history. My goal is to ensure going forward such action is not repeated. ALPA needs to get out of the business of selling mainline jobs so as to benefit some members through harm to other members (as we see well exemplified here).
I strongly support ALPA and Nationals mission (just doubled my PAC for the year). We can, and will, improve our union.
