AFA Supports Our Jewish Labor Committee 

(October 27, 2018) - We stand with the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh. Eleanor Roosevelt said, "Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility.”

A Chicago Business Journal article was just released that says we are in talks with APFA for a merger.

There are no current merger discussions between unions. AFA has long called for a merger of unions to build power for Flight Attendants and this is simply a restatement of that position. A merger would only work through a consensual process and currently there are no such discussions taking place.

We appreciate the leadership of APFA President Lori Bassani, who has worked to ensure we have an open line on issues that are important to Flight Attendants. We are all Aviation's First Responders.

Stop Privatization of the U.S. Postal Service

U.S. Postal Service mail and packages fly on our planes. The routes we fly to communities across the country depend on a strong, public United States Postal Service. We're standing with our sisters and brothers from American Postal Workers Union (APWU), National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC), National Rural Letter Carriers' Association (NRLCA), and National Postal Mail Handlers Union (NPMHU) to stop privatization!

No privatization of the people's post office! Call your Member of Congress and Senators at (202) 224-3121 and tell them to Support H.Res 993 and S.Res 633.
