 I recently attended an event that opened my eyes to the likelihood that

 someday, most likely in the near future, mechanics working for airlines all

 around the country will be able to call upon each other for support. Not the

 kind of support we already offer each other on the line when airplanes are

 grounded, but a much deeper vow of support, one that’s reserved for those we

 trust most. I’ve spent several days interacting with mechanics from different

 companies, both union and non union. We are currently building trust and unity

 by supporting groups of mechanics from other airlines and helping each other

 unite with the Teamsters. Movements like these should be seen by all as the

 building blocks for national aircraft mechanic solidarity and the promise of a

 future where all airline workers are represented by the strongest union in the

 country. This movement of airline mechanics uniting with the Teamsters will have

 enormous benefits for all. Strength truly is found in numbers. If you

 get a chance to talk with a mechanic from another airline, you’ll know that the

 strength of aircraft mechanics coupled with the Teamster union will stop the

 outsourcing and contracting out of our airline jobs. Undoubtedly with a Teamster

 contract we will secure airline jobs with real benefits for workers well into

 the future.
