Thank you Senator @warren.senate.gov for your support of United Flight Attendants! #ContractNOW
United's CEO is the highest paid CEO in the industry, while their flight attendants are paid the least – by far.
That's not right.
No CEO should make 1,173 TIMES what a first year flight attendant makes.
I'm standing with @afacwa.org. They deserve a fair contract now.

United Airlines made over $3.1 billion last year. Instead of reaching a fair deal with its flight attendants, United paid its CEO almost $34 million and provided over $162 million in stock buybacks to shareholders.
United must respect its flight attendants and reach a deal NOW.

It's been 17 years since US Airways Flight 1549 landed in the icy waters of New York’s Hudson River! The "Miracle on the Hudson" would not have been a miracle without everyone doing exactly what needed to be done at just the right moment. We are aviation’s first responders.
