Dear REACH Mechanic:

I recently read the letter management sent to you all. You may recall that in my first letter to you I mentioned that management would use many resources to fight against your Union campaign. They have hired a Union Buster (Labor Consultant) to help them orchestrate their antiunion campaign, and the antiunion letter they sent to you is just the beginning of what you can expect.

Union Busters are highly skilled professionals who charge upward to hundreds of thousands of dollars to run an antiunion campaign. Their antiunion campaign is built on lies and confusion. For example, management’s letter stated that if you sign a card you are signing a contract. That is a total lie. The card, in no way, is a contract. The cards are needed before the National Mediation Board (NMB) will schedule a secret ballot Union election. For more information about this please visit the NMB website at: nmb.gov.

If you have not done so yet, please visit the OPEIU mechanic organizing website at: helomech.org. There is a lot of valuable information in the website, particularly in the organizing section. In that section there is a flier titled, “Union Busting”. Please take the time to read it and the other fliers.

There is only one reason operators fight against a Union campaign; they want to maintain complete control! They do not want you to have a collective voice regarding your wages, benefits and working conditions.

Enclosed is another authorization card for your consideration. Please mail your card to me at: PO Box 553, Crockett, CA 94525.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Jeff Rusich
OPEIU International Representative
