Dear Sisters and Brothers:
Your IAM Negotiating Committee reconvened at District 142 Headquarters in Phoenix, AZ, on April 9 and 10, 2025. During this period, we conducted virtual negotiation sessions with Southwest Airlines.
A Tentative Agreement was reached on Article Eighteen, General and Miscellaneous, and extensive discussions were held on Article Seven – Overtime.
Your committee is still working on all outstanding Articles in preparation for the upcoming sessions in Dallas, TX, on April 16 and 17, 2025.
Thank you for your ongoing patience and support throughout this process. If you have any questions or concerns about these negotiations, please feel free to reach out to a Shop Steward or the General Chair.
Sincerely and fraternally,
John M. Coveny, Jr.
President/Directing General Chair
