From behind closed doors in the back room of the AFA UA MEC Board of Directors meeting in Chicago yesterday emerges the infamous Kevin Lum and Jack Kande as the two "appointees" to the UA Joint Negotiation Committee.
***It is interesting to note today the lengths
that the MEC web site goes to in reiterating how the MEC participated in the
"democratic" process - when in fact there is no democratic process at all for
WORKING flight attendants. Their participation ends, as we all know, at the
local council level and that representation in turn is compromised by a local
president whose political views and votes are solely informed and motivated by her/his
political and career aspirations within the CWA/afa and have nothing whatsoever to
do with what a membership may or may not want.***
***Was the membership informed that there were 13 candidates for these two positions? Where their resumes' posted anywhere for the membership to read? How was the membership to know who the candidates were so we could let our LECP's know who we wanted them to vote for? And this is supposed to be a "democratic" union?!? Hardly.***
