Do I think we can get something else besides ALPA? No. Again the system is rigged if this POS (allegedly) goes into effect.
DALPA, your reputation as an organization is on the line more than ever now. The NC and it's puppet masters put you in this position, and that's not entirely your fault. But it's up to you to fix the problem that's now in your lap.
Step up and do what's right.
I think you need to understand the process better. The MEC authorized the NC to TA during the last special MEC meeting. The NC has not and is not going rogue. So there is no "stepping up". They have already done that. They can change their minds however. What does that do to the credibility of the MEC.
The horse is out of the barn. The MEC has to own this, whatever this is, and the only legitimate way to address it is through membership ratification.
