That’s very generous that you pay your union dues. Also very generous that you have agreed to pay 1% of your salary to support union brothers and sisters who will be on the street during the worst economic crisis in our lives. Who cares that many of whom are responsible for supporting families. Thanks for wearing your ALPA pin though. That helps.
