For those so inclined, here is a way to research ALPA's finances:
Organization Query Page (ERDS)
1. Check the "union" circle
2. Under union name, open the pull down list and select ALPA
3. Click the "SUBMIT" just above the ALPA window
4. Scroll to the bottom of the ALPA accounts
5. Put a check mark next to 000-179 (this is ALPA National. The others are the various MECs)
6. Scroll down to "Reports Specific to LM-2s, LM-3s, T-1s"
7. For salaries - Fill in the dot next to: “Officer/employee report”
8. Click “SUBMIT”
9. For detailed expenditures by ALPA National - Fill in the dot next to "Payer/Payee Itemization Report"
10. Fill in other "dots" at your leisure. There is a lot of information there.
