This vote did not apply to most airlines. It only applied to the ones that had ONLY a 401k as a retirement account. It did not count for UAUA, DAL, NWA, CAL, etc.

How does ALPA intend to charge two different pilot groups, two different dues rates?

I doubt they can.

They don't, the "rate" is the same. The only thing the vote was for was the wage amount that qualified for the dues. If a 401k was the only source of retirement, it was exempt. And I guess still is. I personally don't think it should be subject to dues.

Where did you guys hear that the vote got shot down? I figured it would be a shoe in to pass. I sure hope you are right as this would be a victory for the little guys!

It failed by 55% to 45%. 66.6% was required for it to pass. In other words, not even close. The BOD did the right thing.
