I am aware of what national does, but is it really worth the 10s of millions we lose to them every year??? Does our union work for us, or national. I personally would enjoy a union focused entirely on us. With a spine to actually call out the leadership. Although I will admit the BOD letter was a good start. I would like to see a wholesale re-write of the by laws and administration of DALPA. Something akin to disincentivising life long representatives vies a vie how our congress has become a static echo chamber of career politicians.
Mike Hamilton should resign without delay. Trying to sell this on the same old worn out fear tactics won't fly this time.
