NATCA Election Results

So Nick hasn’t actually said his priority as the next NATCA president is to extend the contract right? Voting at NEB meeting is what we are going off? If Nick comes out and says he has no plans as NATCA President to open negotiations then I would likely not vote for him. But voting for Rich, who has had the role for 3 years with minimal improvements, doesn’t make sense. I understand he got us more OJTI pay but thats really not at the top of the list of issues. We are all working record levels of OT and the agency gets unrestrained use of OT in-lieu of hiring more controllers. When i’m at work on my 6th day instead of with my family the last thing I’m thinking is “thank you rich for the extra OJTI pay”. Why would I vote for the guy who has been incapable of fixing the biggest gripes and complaints of the workforce over his last 3 years on the job? It’s time for someone else to take a turn steering the ship.
Voting for JD was your answer, but that ship has sailed. Time to vote for Santa.
 
Well, what a ride! Not bad for a guy that sent 2 emails, made two videos, visited a handful of facilities, and was the least experienced!

Hey Nothanks I’m still waiting for your call! 😂

Thanks everyone who voted for me. I believe that we made a difference and I think going forward change will happen. I certainly hope so!
I just want to take a moment to thank both you and Mike Redmond for running, and hope you feel awesome about the incredible vote share you guys captured. People were laughing about how you had no chance....20% of people who voted indicating they're tired of the same old NATCA BS is a huge accomplishment for you guys.


Its my hope that somehow both remaining teams somehow manage to learn something from your campaigns and get back to basics of supporting Air Traffic Controller's Pay and Working Conditions. Ill be voting for Santa/Devine, as I firmly believe a vote for NDJH is a vote to continue to Rinaldi days of No Questions allowed, get as many good boys off the floor as we possibly can, BS, that is driving good people away from both this Union and this profession. Would love to hear if you have an endorsement of either remaining team for office.

Seriously, from another ATC stuck working 6 days a week forever with no ambition to get a 114 detail, Thank you!!!

It's funny cuz Rich was Rinaldi's picked successor. On top of that, Rich has been paying Paul $250k of your dues money per year to be his personal "consultant".

It’s funny because 20 people came with NDJH today including retired Marinetti, old region X RVP Brad, Clint, Navarro and a bunch of 114ers. Jamaal was literally put in a position he was not qualified for by Rinaldi and company. Ask Nick and Jamaal if they will remove Rinaldi consulting from the payroll.

Every one of those people there today were part of Rinaldis good old boys club.

You created a movement JD, and they know what’s coming next election. Might be some time but they’re gonna have a lot more people wanting change and running.

One day
 
Nobody’s extending under Kamala
The people on this forum blow my mind. The ignorance is disgusting. Thank you for pointing out the obvious choice in our government elections. People will go back and forth about the silliest things, will spit misinformation and are missing the big picture entirely. It’s remarkable.

Imagine if 5 people ran for President and VP it would cause them all to create a resonating message.

We haven’t forgot what happened last extension.
What happens if the FAA wants to have those talks in October….are they going to extend or say NO. Or are they going to agree to extend and if Kamala wins renege on the agreement. Last time they wanted to be to political correct which is what got us where we are at. The days of handling things like that have gone by the wayside, look at Kamala’s campaign ya gotta talk at their level to have people hear the fight and motive the base. When has NATCA done this…2008 and then RedBook.
