Only 75% voting?

E people choosing or not choosing to vote is natural in everything. How many US Citizens that can vote in National elections don’t vote either? Some Countries force their citizens to vote. America doesn’t do that for anything that I can think of.

Anyway the point is that it passed.

I feel AMFA did more than any other union. Max 20% outsourcing. IBT gave it all back. At least things weren’t kept secret. The IBT kept saying they were going to get out pension back. Never happened because it wasn’t possible. They wanted us to help fund their failing pension. If not AMFA then who? The IBT won’t have your back. Unions are a necessary evil.
ibt always allows outsourcing. Yes, ibt gave it all back and now they are trying to brag about a mere 5 lines coming back. They never should have left in the first place IMO, but that is the way the ibt/teamsters operate.

With WestJet just filing for AMFA Representation, wanted to check in on the UAL drive for AMFA representational vote. We all understand the ibt/teamsters just did an extension and yes with 5 lines supposedly coming BACK in house, and I hope this does not cloud or deter the AMFA card drive. I assure you the ibt/teamsters begged the co to allow more maint in house to help fight off that AMFA drive for representation. Matter fact, I would not put it pass that they also agreed to allowing the co to take some back a little later down the road once they see IF the deterrent worked to slow down the AMFA drive, they've done this in the past at many carriers. It's all a ploy.

Any updates on the drive as well as the real meat and potatoes of the extension would be appreciated.

Keep dreaming bro. Your little rinky dink outfit ain’t got nothing to offer these people. That’s also why this thread has dried up like a stinky turd. Bravo and kudos to the IBT here. 👏
