[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 3642833, member: 49065"] And we wonder why there is so much distrust from the membership on the way this contract is going down. Why not be open with the minutes of these meetings, are they on transcript or being recorded and when will they be presented to the rank and file. This two man committee vote will really show the true nature of the leadership in your locals. The local representatives better be voting how the majority is leaning on this contract, no dog and pony show of badmouthing the international but worried about losing their positions. The loophole of the 50% and 2/3 requirement does worry most of us considering what happen in 2013, there is history and evidence to support that concern. Apparently this is going to drag out way pass the deadline, I expect it will be settled before this coming peak season. It might affect the bottom line if it does not, the closer we get to Christmas the more effective that passed strike vote in the hands of the International will be. Everybody is waiting on the Supplemental and Rider language once that comes out we really will see how this plays out. So far I have just received two flyers in my mail about this contract mostly about the 22.4's and the improvements. The sell hasn't started yet, once we see the entire completed contract then people will vote one way or another. Right now I expect most will vote "No" just with the history of the last contract and the last Election results. This could change if the Supplements and Riders improvements somehow outdo the Master's concessions and subpar GWI and Pension increases in most of the nation. [/QUOTE]
