We are getting a lot of the standard ALPA Nat. help as it relates to both our grievance and our entrance to Section 6 negotiations. Legal, E & FA, Communications, and financial.

ALPA Authorizes $2 Million from Union's "War Chest" to Midwest Airlines Pilots to Fight Management's Outsourcing Plan
WASHINGTON-The Air Line Pilots Association, Int'l (ALPA) has allocated $2 million to support the Midwest Airlines pilots' fight to protect their jobs as they begin contract negotiations with an increasingly adversarial management.

In its September 10th resolution, ALPA's Executive Board authorized the amount from the Association's Major Contingency Fund (MCF) for "strategic planning and communications programs in support of the [Midwest pilots'] contract enforcement and negotiating activities." ALPA's MCF, the union's "war chest," provides pilot groups the necessary resources to respond to threats to their jobs and to the piloting profession.
