Dear Flying Partners:

As we all know, there is a Tentative Agreement vote underway.  The recent meetings have produced a very low turnout relatively speaking when it comes to the fact that we are voting on a long awaited tentative agreement.  We have scheduled meetings at least once per week since the announcement of the TA in an effort to ensure everyone has the ability to get their questions answered.

If you know anyone who is not receiving The LAX Briefing Newsletter, please print a copy and let them know these meetings are taking place.  Everyone can also visit afalax.org to obtain the latest news and meeting information.

Voting is done electronically by internet or phone, up to August 12th at 9:00am Pacific Time. Your voting instructions will provide you with your unique activation code and instructions to cast your ballot at the secure VoteNet site (accessed through a link on OurConract.org).

If you did not receive your voting instructions, you may contact the Ballot Help online by filling out this form to request a new activation code. The Ballot Help Line is also open Monday - Friday, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. eastern, at 800-424-2401, press 1, and then ext. 706.

OurContract.org publishes frequent email updates. Please visit this page to sign up.

Make every effort to get the facts and cast an informed vote!

Lastly, please take 10 minutes to watch a video message from our AFA International President Sara Nelson regarding our Tentative Agreement.

In Solidarity,

Dante Harris, President
AFA-CWA Council 12 - LAX
