TWU INTL suing its own members
New here, and cannot find an appropriate forum so here we are. I have some knowledge of this and was wondering what the fly guys might think. Inside info has the TWU suing its former board members (dispatchers and sim techs (AA)) 541 and 542. They apparently gave some of the dues back to the entire memberships. Not sure of why, but does that sound like a good reason for the former board members to be litigated by their own union? A little tidbit, they are using local dues, in part, against the members express wishes, to sue the former board. I just don't think they have the right. Can they just ask for money back from members without the bullying? Sounds like they do not get much local autonomy, which I think is what the local should have! Are not locals free to run the locals the way they see fit. Again just wondering your thoughts. The money they gave back was not exactly small, however, well within the locals mean to continue without detriment.
