NATCA Petition

[SquawkHijack]

This one is straight forward. After recent statements from special council, it’s time we stop and seriously consider these questions. Is NATCA really advocating for our best interests? Do they effectively do their job advocating for a workforce? What do you see NATCA achieving for your pay, benefits, working conditions, your facility? Should we cut ties with them and find a better labor union to join AFL-CIO, help us move forward and truly collaborate? Is NATCA setting the stage to extend the contract against the will of its members amidst the Trump administration taking office?

A public no confidence vote would be awesome but there is no avenue to force it and the losers would never voluntarily do it, just like the Canadian prime minister and Zelensky refusing to have elections.

Maybe locally there could be votes of no confidence and then that could be made public and forwarded up, but you need the Fac Rep to be involved in that, and while a slight few are ready to rebel most are still lap dogs, even the ones stuck at level 5’s with their careers in eternal purgatory sub 100K for life.

Decertification for a public union I believe requires 30% of us to sign a petition to trigger a vote to decertify. I don’t think it would be hard to send a strong message at very least.

Blue all the BUEs who quit the union are allowed to vote to decertify.

I got an idea. How about you guys hold an election and waste everyone's time voting for a useless third party candidate to send a message.

Maybe if we had union leadership that actually had their members best interest as motivation there wouldn’t have been a need for a third party candidate.

This shit about pay justification actually makes me sick to my stomach. I can’t believe our union is using our own dues to weaponize against us.

Daniels is clearly a fraud, but sadly, I don’t think there’s any way to revive NATCA at this point. If Daniels were removed, it’s almost certain he’ll just be replaced with another union establishment fool who will only be concerned with maintaining the status quo.

The Freedman presentation was the perfect embodiment of what this organization has become. They belittle and ignore their members, going as far as to gaslight them and imply they’re all stupid, just so they can maintain their positions and their lifestyles. They are never going to be in-touch with the workforce, and as long as they continue representing us, we’re never going to get the raises we all know we deserve.

NATCA is no longer a union for air traffic controllers. It’s a country club for those already inside. It has to go.

Says the guy who stated Jamaal lost because he’s black… Man you’re quite the shining idol of democracy, aren’t you?
