JOINT MEC MEETING CONCLUDES WITH DECISION TO SEND THE TENTATIVE AGREEMENT TO THE MEMBERS FOR A RATIFICATION VOTE
The members of the East and West Master Executive Councils (MEC) concluded two days of meetings in CLT to review the Tentative Agreement and make a decision whether or not to send the TA to the members for a ratification vote.
The voting members of the East MEC are:
Council 41 Local President, Dianne Britton
Council 70 Local President, Terry Graf
Council 89 Local President, Cathy Campbell
Council 70 President Terry Graf made a motion for the East MEC to send the TA out for a ratification vote with a "neutral" recommendation. Council 41 President Dianne Britton seconded the motion. The vote was 2 to 1 with Council 89 President Cathy Campbell voting no on the motion.
Ms. Campbell declared a "division of the house" - a parliamentary procedure to clarify her vote. Ms. Campbell stated she voted no on the motion because although she was in favor of sending the TA out for a vote she wanted it on record that she was recommending that members of Council 89 vote "NO" for the TA.
Because the motion carried 2-1, the TA will be sent to the East members for a ratification vote.
West MEC President, Deborah Volpe voted to send the TA to the members of Council 66 for a ratification vote.
The process of ratification will now begin. Initially you will receive a summary of the TA followed by, a more thorough discussion. The entire TA will be posted on the AFA web sites and on Wings. An extensive road show schedule is being planned. More information will be made available beginning tomorrow.
Thank you,
The US Airways Master Executive Council

Council 66 Sends Tentative Agreement to Membership
The West and East Master Executive Councils met in CLT yesterday and today to review the Tentative Agreement. Today, the West and East MEC's voted and agreed to send the TA out to our members for their review and consideration. In the next few days, you will receive additional information about Roadshows and when details of the TA will be released. Be assured, you will have the entire TA available via the West and East MEC websites in addition to being available on Wings.
There will be ample time for you to review the TA prior to the commencement of the Roadshows. TA summaries will also be made available and mailed to your homes. We advise all of our members to read the entire TA in order to have your questions ready for Roadshows. Now we can proceed with preparing the TA for your consideration.
AFA Council 66 unanimously voted to send the TA out to our members for a ratification vote. It's a comprehensive agreement with many significant improvements, but will also contain areas of difficulty. PHL and DCA Presidents voted to send it out with a neutral vote. The CLT Local President voted to send it out, but with a recommendation for her members in CLT to vote no.
The West and East MEC's will be attending the AFA Board of Director's meeting this upcoming weekend and into next week. Communication regarding the TA will continue. Our LEC meeting is this Friday, February 3rd, from 1pm until 4pm at the MEC Office and is dedicated to information outlining 43 Advanced Agenda Items for the AFA BOD. Because information on the TA has yet to be sent out to the East and West Flight Attendants, the TA will not be on the agenda.
The ratification process will now begin. Initially, you will receive a summary of the TA followed by a more thorough discussion. The entire TA will be posted on the AFA web sites and on Wings. An extensive Roadshow schedule is being planned. More information will be made available beginning tomorrow. You will receive voting materials and instructions in the upcoming weeks.

Not too surprising. Although from everything everyone says here, it a surprise that the Charlotte leader actually clarified that she wants her folks to vote no. All the talk from Philly was just that it would appear. The Phoenix vote was a given considering the conflict of interest with the west MEC leader and negotiator being the one to also cast the vote on sending it out. The burden is now on the members as was expected!
