***UPDATE***. So I called ALPA to b!tch about this nonsense of recalculating my dues “shortage”. I got a voicemail, and two emails stating that there was “an issue with the database and the programming” that caused them to think i had underpaid my 2017 dues. They were extremely apologetic and assured me that I am in good standing and don’t owe any more money for 2017. They must have “Top Men” working on all their problems. If anyone received a letter saying that they want more $$ for 2017 dues, I’d call membership and tell them you want this researched. Ridiculous that we have to go through this......
