Copies of the TA have been shipped from the District offices in Kansas City, MO to each base. Members of the Negotiating Committee will have copies available for their bases. Rodger Jackson will have copies for GSP and I will be delivering the copies to CVG. I again ask for your cooperation in that you sign for a copy once you receive it. If you are in training, please let a Shop Steward know and we will ensure you get a copy.
In the days leading up to Thanksgiving, I will be available in the bases to answer questions you may have about the TA. Details concerning the explanation meeting and ratification vote have also been finalized. As I mentioned previously, they will begin on November 27, 2017. Here are the finalized dates and times:
If you are in training, you will need to come to one of the above listed locations and times to vote as there are no absentee ballots allowed for a contract ratification vote.
Your Negotiating Committee members will be available between now and the ratification vote to answer all questions you may have about the TA and they unanimously recommend a YES vote on this Tentative Agreement. You can also send any questions to . Your patience and solidarity have been instrumental in reaching this TA and your participation in the ratification process is important. With best wishes we remain
Sincerely and fraternally,
