I believe this is a positive change for our union. I ran on the platform of change and transparency in our union, i.e.. finances. The MEC knew that if we were elected they would be held accountable, so they propped up Pachofsky and Ackerman and campaigned for them, not knowing that they too wanted transparency and true accountability of our union. The MEC works at the behest of the LEC's, unfortunately this recalled MEC always had it backwards and believed they were the ultimate leaders. They never saw it coming, now is time to focus on cleaning up the hierarchy and realigning our leadership within the ALPA SPA Bylaws. Then it is time to negotiate an industry leading contract, not some extension of our current industry lagging contract. Congrats to our LEC's for stepping up to the plate and doing what is right.
