Since you have the inside track to all things ALPA, please give us ONE SINGLE ISSUE VOTE the RANK-IN-FILE (here at good ol' United) has voted on.
Single issue meaning something like your desired in the original post -
"It seems to me that if there is a way to do something like this, it should not only be considered, but put out for a pilot vote once we know the details."
Is you old airline CAL?
