Default ALPA Resignation

Can somebody guide me to the rumored "charity contribution" option to paying the ALPA "maint" fee?

Thanks,

Mike

If ALPO doesn't fix this Turd of a TA you are going to see MASSIVE resignations....especially the furloughed guys from UAL and a ton of CAL guys who see what a turd of a TA ALPA gave us.

ALPA did it to themselves. One too many pull up the ladder I got mine.

LOA 8 says everybody pays...member or not. Monthly service charge is the same as normal dues.

Correct.

BUT...there is a labor law exemption that permits a non-member for "personal religious beliefs" to pay the dues/service charge to a charity in lieu of the union. It is part of Federal Law (Title VII) which protects employees from religious discrimination in the workplace.

A quick google search of "union dues to charity" will provide links to all the anti-union organizations that would be thrilled to help out.

I'd rather pay a maint fee than be a member.
It's all about ethics. There us no "union" here. It's an organization who will sell out anybody to benefit the people running it.
Largest signing bonuses will go to the Union guys because its based on W2 earnings.
Paid parking in ANC over TEN years after the base closure.
Selling out junior double furloughees to pad their pockets.

If what ALPA did to the TWA pilots and now the junior double furloughees at UAL doesn't show you the corruption, then you are a kool Aid drinking cult member.
