Local Lodge 1759 (DC Area) Holds Town Halls to Discuss Furloughs
Capitol Air Lodge 1759 in Herndon, Virginia calls daily membership Q&A Sessions, 8-hours a day, for the next two weeks.
IAMAW Local 1759 President, Bill Huston discusses the extraordinary efforts that members are taking in the DC Area to prepare for the impact of furloughs, which are expected to hit about 36,000 United Airlines workers as soon as October 1.
MNPL ALERT:
Congressional allies are working to build support for an effort to extend the Payroll Support Program. If successful, such an extension could prevent furloughs until March 2021. They are winning bipartisan support, but they need your help. Please contact your member of Congress and Senate and ask that they join the effort to save hundreds of thousands of airline jobs this fall.
