Judge Says 10,000 American Airlines Workers Can’t Hold Union Vote
A federal judge in Texas today blocked an election by 10,000 American Airlines passenger service agents that the National Mediation Board (NMB) last week ordered to begin June 21. Last month, American filed suit against the NMB’s decision to allow the workers to vote on joining the Communications Workers of America (CWA). In a statement this afternoon CWA said:
Clearly the airline is afraid of workers having their democratic vote and has been fighting hard to stop it.
