It should be 1.2% at most and NO bonuses should ever be “taxed”!
With these massive increases in salaries ALPA is raking it in and I can’t stand for a Union where, most Pilots I talk to, are conservative and this Union is giving freely to Democrats... again WTF
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think they can give any of your dues to political campaigns, I think only the PAC can do that (which you don't have to participate in).

And even ALPA PAC is going to very targeted, ie not vomiting cash all over over every lefty cause and agenda in sight, but rather selectively focused on candidates who's are likely or proven to help unions, pilots, and maybe airline aviation.
