National is there to make sure you have a job to show up for that is safe and operated with US regulations.
Your MEC takes the reins on "restoring the contract". Each MEC has the freedom to set their negotiating goals.
As to the "DPA" use of LM-2 numbers as "how much an officer makes", well it's absurd. DPA clowns twisting numbers to suit their own agenda. National officer salary (aka W2 data) is published on the ALPA website, along with the method used to calculate pay.
An LM-2 for a line pilot would show pilots as having their First class international DH's, every van ride, airport parking days, hotel rooms, and road meal counted as "income"? Oh, add all your 401k and healthcare counted as W-2 income also.

By the way, does anyone have a link or cover photo of the ALPA magazine Clamp refers to here?
