Then you're not paying attention. There are definitely people out there that do not think scope restoration is worth any negotiating capital. You're in denial if you don't know that. A current candidate for MEC Chairman (Bill K.) is just one of those people. So not only are you wrong about this statement, but there's a good chance that a person with this belief will be the new DALPA MEC Chairman. Then your work of changing ALPA from within can begin.

No they're not. Some are not even agreeing that scope is something to be fought for. The new ALPA President is a man who states that RJ's are good for Delta Air Lines.

Never have I said this. The UAL/CAL position on this would be a great one in my opinion. Thus far, DALPA's position on it is TOTAL SILENCE! Total silence does not give me confidence that our MEC gets it.
