2. IROP Grievance
Highly unlikely to win this in arbitration. If we file grievance, it could/may possibly be used a bargaining chip later. Possibly used in contract language clean up. Helpful to start monitoring why/when of declaring IROPs. It would be evidence in negotiations. Preserve the evidence. Discussion regarding grievance/loa/contract language. Joe in favor of filing grievance. Joe to check with international and Peter Swason (former EDV AFA lawyer) for notes on IROP language during past negotiation/contract, including his and Tina Talarico’s notes.

5. Should the EDV MEC send out a survey asking the Flight Attendants if and when the time comes, would you support a strike?
I'll happily explain why I pose this question at our meeting. (submitted by BH Local 49)
Communication on RRLA, explanation of it. And ask them if they would be willing to strike after knowledge. It would help us understand our membership stance. Educational positive. JS going to check on this with Taylor Garland & International for legal part.
6. Will there be a list of agenda items that will be discussed during the Oct 14 &15 meeting? Will this list be collaborative and where will it come from, ie the LECP's DL
Discussed earlier today in Labor Management - will send a preview to DD two weeks prior to Oct meeting.
