One of our most frequently used phrases is, "We are only as strong as our least active Member.” It is our hope that as we continue building our Local, more Inflight Crewmembers will be eager to get involved in ways that invoke inspiration, passion, and drive. If you aren’t already, please consider becoming a full dues-paying member. Check out our FAQ page if you have questions. We can’t wait to welcome you aboard as a full dues-paying member by signing up for dues auto deductions via our Union Website.
In the coming weeks, we will be appointing our Election Committee. The Election Committee will be tasked with adopting appropriate election rules and providing forms and ballots, conducting the nominations and election of Officers and the Executive Board under the LMRDA, the TWU International Constitution, and our By-laws.
The Election Committee shall consist of three (3) Members and three (3) Alternates. The Election Committee shall be appointed by a majority vote of a quorum of the Executive Board. The term will be for a three (3) year period. The deadline to submit interest is Nov 25th, 2022, 5:00 P.M., EST.
Once seated, our Election Committee shall begin nominations and elections for Shop Stewards. The duties of Shop Stewards will include representing Members on behalf of the Local in meetings with Management; keeping informed on events of interest to the Membership, and clarifying and explaining to Members matters pertaining to the contract or Local. Keep an eye out for more details.
