Answer: Nobody.
Uh....the Captain. FAR 121.547. I never said you had to be a member of ALPA. I'll let union or non union ride anytime. Skywest as an example is not union. UPS is IPA. Southwest is SWAPA. They are all welcome anytime. But if you are CAL or United pilot during this time in our history better be a member in good standing and have an ALPA pin or you ain't getting a seat on my JS.
....simple as that!
