The Labor Coalition - Real or a Farse?

[RV4]

The American Airlines Labor Coalition, if there really ever was such a thing is about to be tested.

APA President Darrah has NOT signed the agreement.

APFA President Ward has signed the agreement.

TWU ATD Director Little has NOT signed the agreement.

The APFA is the only union that has so far declared a re-vote is needed.

I suspect the Pilots will not play the coalition game any longer because the Sacred Cow pensions would be in the balance.

This leaves TWU ATD Director James Little holding the trump card. Given the nature of our concessions, how much more could he really lose? Will Little protect the Pilots pension? Or will Little defend Ward against AA and the pack of lies they generated?

What will Little do? What will APA do?

Was the coalition created by the APA really a coalition? Or has the Pilot Union gotten everthing they need from the group and will now leave Mr. Ward hanging?

There was either NOTHING to this so-called coalition, or we are about to see manuevers by other Union Leaders to bail Ward out of the spinning vortex of water (Whirlpool) before he gets sucked down the drain.

I will bet that Little will sign. Too bad though, once again the TWU workers are held to the mercy of the unreplaceable few. What happened to the TWU constitution? 30 days to review a contract prior to a vote? TWU members not being able to vote like the APFA members because of PIN problems.What about their voice? Perhaps they can be heard in a courtroom one day. We all know why the APFA got a revote though. How about the failure of the company to bargain in good faith, withholding information. Little has had his chance to redeem himself before, we know which way he sways. Last chance Jim!

If Jim Little signs or doesn''t sign without a complete and honest re-vote, he opens the TWU up for HUGE lawsuits.

Either way, a re-vote is needed to protect the guilty.
