The union we are forming, the Teamsters Union, represents 1.4 million hardworking men and women in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico, including more than 40,000 workers in the aviation industry in every craft and class.

Because the federal government is closed Monday, February 8, the vote count for our election to form our union with the Teamsters will be postponed to Tuesday, February 9 at 2 p.m. (Eastern Time), weather permitting. However, the voting will end at 2 p.m. Monday, February 8 as originally scheduled.
 
 

The time has come. We will be receiving our voting instructions this week (week of January 4). The voting instructions will come inside an envelope from the National Mediation Board with the words “National Mediation Board” written on it. Click here to see the envelope. Vote right away! If you don’t receive your voting instructions by January 9, talk to an Organizing Committee member or call our Hotline, 1-866-832-6787, and leave a message so we can get you duplicate voting instructions.

Voting Will End at 2 p.m. (Eastern Time) Monday, February 8

Voting in our election to form our union with the Teamsters will end at 2 p.m. Monday, February 8, so if you have not voted yet, vote right away so you don’t miss your chance.
