False.StaySeated said:If your carrier is ALPA and you decide to not participate you still pay dues, period. I am not supporting one side of this argument or the other but all alpa carriers pay 1.9%. Those that decide not to participate still get 1.9% deducted from their checks as part of the Agency Shop section of your cba. I just read the thread about having this section in your contract.

If you are on the seniority list and work under the agreed upon work rules then you pay, no exceptions.
FedEx is one example. Union membership is not mandatory, and there is no agency shop.
