MEC Meeting Update
Your officers have been LAS since Monday attending the MEC meeting. Day one of the meeting was outlined in last night’s MEC update detailing the reports that were presented.
Today the following resolution was floored:
Therefore, be it resolved that the United Master Executive Council hereby rescinds its previous endorsement of Captain Todd Insler for the office of President of the Association, and;
Therefore, be it further resolved that the United MEC will not endorse Capt. Insler for any other ALPA, International office or for any role, and does not support of any role for Capt. Insler at ALPA, International, including Executive Administrator.
This resolution had the support of the following councils: C5-EWR, C11-DCA, C12-ORD and C173-GUM but failed on a roll call vote 5316 FOR and 5338 AGAINST with one abstention.
Today is the Presidential debate and all of the MEC reps will get a chance to listen to the two candidates. Likely, your affiliated with the Delta pilots to assist their candidate by throwing out political information and are attempting to influence the FDX MEC who will make informed decisions based on what first hand information they receive.
They will likely confer as an elected body to discuss what is in the best interest for 1 - FedEx pilots and 2 - ALPA pilots.
Political manipulation from an anonymous web board is a simpletons approach to an important decision. Likely not to influence in any way the FDX MEC.
I hope your candidate prevails.
