That's a promising sign.
Hopefully they will get some opinions other than ALPA National lawyers.
If they listen to ALPA National we are screwed.
The MEC passed a watered-down version.
The original directed that a grievance be filed. Period.
The version that passed directed an investigation and a grievance "if appropriate."
With the MEC still controlled by Moakists (who are now trying to get management jobs since their ALPA prospects are shot), I'm guessing they won't find a grievance to be "appropriate."
As an aside, it's my understanding that several of the outgoing reps were neck deep up RA's butt looking for a new sugar daddy when he spoke at the meeting. Nestor, of course, was no doubt fully engaged.
And why was RA there? What was he talking about? Enough listening to that guy. It's time for action.
