I suspect the 94% who voted 99% in favor of a strike just went to 100%/100%.

After what we have all been through in the past 11 years, if the lost sheep didn't vote yes for a strike authorization, they never will. Never.

This is the exact same letter sent last month to the UAL side from Bo E. Apparently the author is the same person.

I thought it was a medical records privacy thing protected by HIPPA law that they cannot ask to see it. So get a note and tell them they cannot look at it. ALPA, where are you on this one?

All the note has say is that patient xyz is under my care and unable to work.

Well, CAL allowed this little gem in their contract:

A pilot will
not be required to advise Scheduling as to the nature of his Sickness, but may be required to
so advise his Chief Pilot.

Don't see the issue here.... It is so easy to get a note... And the more notes that are submitted the worse it makes Jeff's argument supporting an injunction!! Ultimately this will just make managements case worse....proof of no sick out.
I totally agree it is absurd/maybe illegal to request the note....but hey we have tolerated so much worse and this will just help prove its Jeff, not the pilots, causing an unhealthy working environment creating the issue.
