Greetings,
*IMMEDIATE CALL
TO ACTION*
FMLA legislation correcting
the exclusion of flight attendants is before the
Senate. If we want this legislation to pass your Senator's
need to hear from you NOW.
Currently the NW flight attendants
have FMLA because we have negotiated and secured it in our
Contract. If we can fix the law, eliminating the loop
hole, we will not have to negotiate for these protections going
forward. Currently pre-merger Delta flight attendants have
FMLA, however it can be taken away at anytime because the law
does not technically cover flight crews.
Please pick up the phone and call
both of your Senator's. You should have every
single member of your family, who is of voting age make
a call as well. Have your neighbors and friends call as
well. IT IS THAT IMPORTANT !
Below is a script you can utilize as
well as phone numbers.
Hello. My name
is__________________ and I am a registered voter in the
state. I live in
(CITY). I am
calling to ask the Senator to cosponsor S. 1422. This is
bipartisan, common sense legislation which has already passed
the House of Representatives on a unanimous voice vote. It would fix a long
standing problem and finally provide FMLA fairness for flight
attendants. Please
make sure that the Senator stands with the nations flight
attendants by cosponsoring S. 1422. Thank you for your time
