[QUOTE="jim50321, post: 1111220, member: 22248"] I hope hall and the negotiating committee understand how many dues paying members they will lose if the contract contains such an onerous health care package for part-timers. I have talked to numerous part-time union members and to a person have told me they would leave the union so they can apply the dues money to pay for the health care. As far as most of them are concerned there is no reason to be in the union if this is the result they get for paying dues. As I talked about in a thread I started back in February the company's proposals are all about divide and conquer. Find a set of proposals that full timers will accept no matter what it does to part timers. Since it has always been the case that full timers vote in enough numbers to carry the contract, the company only needs to find the tipping point. If the negotiating committee allows those proposals in the contract for a vote than it's pretty much a done deal. I just don't know if Hall and Hoffa quite understand the long term ramifications for the union if they screw over the part time membership. [/QUOTE]
