Presidents Report:
Spring has arrived and for our members that means the end of heavy loads. This is a great time for airline workers to enjoy the benefits of travel and see the world.
D.L.142 will be holding Officer Nominations on Friday April 4, 2025 from 6-8 am and again at 6-8 pm at same hotel we hold our LL meetings.
The FSCM will start their Legislative Conference on March 30 and end on April 3 in TLH . The Florida House and Senate in TLH are trying to change labor laws that affect young people.
Labor is under attack in DC by taking away protections we have enjoyed for many years. Many of these changes are effecting many veterans in the form of layoffs. Please let your Representatives know you are not in support of these changes.
Until next month,
STAY STRONG, STAY SAFE, STAY UNION
