Welcome to Union Break with Council 35! In this episode, we’re recapping our September 22nd membership meeting in San Francisco, where Council 35 officers and the Joint Negotiating Committee joined us to share insights on the upcoming Alaska–Hawaiian merger negotiations. Melissa walks us through the highlights, including the differences between Section 6 negotiations and JCBA negotiations, why member participation in surveys is so important, and how this process will shape our future contract. Tune in to hear how these discussions are setting the stage for the work ahead—and how your voice matters in shaping the outcome.
