Hmmm... what has ALPA done for its members? Lets see. Negotiated lower wage and benefits packages for its members. That’s a major accomplishment.
Oh… and there’s more!
ALPA Board of Directors Considers Constitution Change!
Starting July 28, the ALPA Board of Directors will be voting on a change to the ALPA Constitution and By-Laws. If approved by two-thirds of the BOD, this change would make all pilot salary deferrals to 401(k) pension plans subject to dues. This would replace existing policy—currently pilot contributions to 401(k) plans are exempt from dues only if the 401(k) is the pilot’s only pension plan—and would both clarify ALPA policy and ensure that it applies consistently to members across the Association. The proposed revision was strongly endorsed by the Executive Council and Executive Board.
ALPA… a real class act.
