We all spent money and countless hours in order to become prepared to enter our profession. Upon entering we all willingly became stewards of our craft. A steward is a person whose responsibility it is to take care of something. As AMTs we are responsible for taking care of aircraft by maintaining them in safe, airworthy condition. We do this by having the best training possible, both in the classroom and learning from others we work with. We also use the best tools available. This knowledge is then passed onto the men and women who follow behind us. This process allows us to build a stronger foundation which our craft is based upon... knowledge, skill & integrity.

By constantly raising the bar by which we measure ourselves we are protecting and advancing our craft for future generations. By doing this we are being good stewards. Yet we are not using the best tools available to protect our craft as best we can. By allowing ourselves to belong to two catch all industrial unions that deny you the right to vote on what you believe in is best for our craft prevents us from being good stewards. Democratic processes in a craft union provides us the best tool possible to ensure we move forward.

This "association" prevents us from protecting and promoting our skilled craft & profession. Individuals who prevent our becoming a democratic craft union are preventing our being good stewards for our craft & profession. Arguements for not belonging to a democratic craft union are sad attacks on our responsibilities of being the best we can be. I have signed an AMP Authorization Card to help me use the best tool possible for being the best steward possible for our craft & profession.

As most people have become aware AMP Authorization Cards have been received from the printers and are making their way out to those who wish for a representational election against the association. If you have signed a card already we say Thank you! If you wish to sign a card ask a coworker who has signed or look for an organizer. If you still can not find a card please PM and we'll get one to you.

Although not decided upon as the final t-shirt design here is a picture of an AMP shirt. The photo may be a few years old but nothing has changed. (Well, I may have a little less hair.☹️) The ability to have a craft, democratic union remains inside the AMP Constitution which combined with the membership's control of the union ensures its success. Change is needed for our craft. Some people might fear change. Information is key moving forward. Do you want a union that fights against you or do you want a union that fights for you?

The drive for fair, democratic, union representation is under way at AA! The "association" created by the unelected bonding of two industrial unions, the IAM & TWU, with the premise of representing one skilled, craft profession will not work. The wheels are in motion to bring true representation whereby the union is controlled by the membership... not the other way around. Keep visiting this page as information will be updated as the days and weeks go by. Spread the word!
