Airline workers need a voice wherever decisions are made.
Some of the decisions that shape airline work are negotiated directly with employers. Others are made by Congress, federal agencies, regulators, and other government institutions.
IAM legislative advocacy helps make sure airline workers are represented in both places.
Collective bargaining gives workers a voice with the employer.
Union members negotiate over wages, benefits, scheduling, job protections, working conditions, and other terms of employment.
Legislative advocacy gives workers a voice beyond the bargaining table.
When public policy affects aviation jobs, safety, retirement, workplace protections, or the rules governing the industry, airline workers need an organized voice there too.
Advocacy connects the workplace to Washington.
MNPL and IAM legislative advocacy help bring the experience and priorities of working people into the public-policy decisions that can affect their jobs and their future.
Protecting Airline Workers in Washington
Laws and public policy shape our jobs, our safety, our retirement, and the future of our industry. The Machinists Non-Partisan Political League helps ensure airline workers have a voice where those decisions are made.
Why This Matters
Job Protection
Public policy affects outsourcing, staffing, long-term job stability, and the protections airline workers rely on.
Wages & Benefits
Retirement, healthcare, and compensation are influenced not only by contracts, but by laws and regulations as well.
Safety Standards
Federal rules shape the working conditions of airline employees and the safety standards that protect both workers and passengers.
Representation
Airlines and corporations lobby constantly. Working people need an organized voice in that same arena.
What MNPL Does
The Machinists Non-Partisan Political League (MNPL) helps ensure that airline workers and working families are represented in the public policy process.
MNPL supports advocacy efforts that protect jobs, improve workplace safety, strengthen retirement security, and promote policies that benefit union members and their families.
It is one of the ways union members build influence beyond the contract table and make sure our priorities are heard where laws and regulations are written.
Stand With Airline Workers
MNPL is funded through voluntary contributions. Every contribution helps strengthen the voice of airline workers in Washington and supports the fight for fair laws, safe workplaces, and long-term job security.
Non-Partisan. Worker-Focused.
What That Means
MNPL is not tied to any political party. Its purpose is to support policies and advocacy that benefit working people, protect airline jobs, and advance the interests of union members.
Voluntary Support
Contributions to MNPL are voluntary. They are one way members can help build influence and protect the future of airline workers beyond the workplace itself.
