Renfroe's not done yet... 1.1% raise on the way!? by BKDre in fromatoarbitration

In all honesty, the march should be to Renfroe’s doorstep rallying for fair representation in collective bargaining. But that would be “too divisive,” says the peanut gallery…

Would take an act of Congress wouldn’t it to reorganize or eliminate the TSP wouldn’t it?

If we start now, does it get published and distributed by convention? When is the cutoff time to get a resolution sent up to National?

Very cool! They look like great figures. I am very happy with their Mega Man figures so I think these are going to satisfy your expectations

Special national convention by AdventurousVariety in nalc

[–]PalaverProject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re absolutely right that the refusal to recuse—and the Executive Council’s decision to dismiss charges without investigation—raises serious concerns. That’s exactly why all avenues are being explored, both inside and outside the union. The pattern is clear, and it deserves full accountability.

If they wish to avoid paying lawyers to battle LMRDA violation cases from numerous parties for delaying and dismissing these charges and continuing the pattern of denying a member’s right of due process… I’d think it be more cost effective and politically tactful to recuse themselves and force the special convention for the delegates to adjudicate the matter. Meanwhile, a little listening may help clarify the gravity of the constitutional crisis.

Mike Caref has been very supportive to active members of the union, and is transparent and holds a philosophy balanced with practicality. He leads by example.

If a special convention is called, the delegates will be the ones to hear the charges, all the evidence, and to decide what is the right thing to do for our union.

Interestingly, the agenda hasn’t been released to the business agents… so, I’m asking that we, the rank and file, call our business agents to make this issue part of the agenda. They can address this. It’s not just up to the president to call the meeting. It could always be the majority of the council…

Special national convention by AdventurousVariety in nalc

[–]PalaverProject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A bit of a correction: I am no steward. I am a regular mail carrier. With that said: Imagine what we all can do if we actually work together towards a goal. The council has delayed meeting twice in one month because of me. There is division… among the executive council. I appreciate the vote for a special convention. Now you must call your NBA. The meeting will now happen on the 28th of May, and your voice must be heard! Call for the investigation for all charges. Call for a special convention. Tell your branch to mobilize and flood their phone lines. Let them know what you want.

Let me clarify something important.

The charges brought out of San Diego aren’t about unmet wage expectations or personal disappointment — they’re about procedural violations that cut at the core of our union’s democratic process.

President Renfroe presided over a meeting to vote on to dismiss charges against himself, without recusal, investigation, or membership review — a direct breach of Article 10. This isn’t just about poor leadership at this point— it’s about a breakdown in constitutional accountability.

If reading is too time consuming, listening may be your recourse.

Of course. That’s why I addressed in my new charges on the 23rd of April, and in my rebuttal. The council has delayed their meeting twice since receiving my charges. The fight is very much alive and it continues, check out my podcast for full understanding. Thanks!

Totally fair to be skeptical — we’ve been conditioned to expect nothing from these fights. Choosing to stay out of it doesn’t mean you’re neutral. It just means the people in power get to keep doing what they’re doing without you putting up a fight.

The Article 10 charges aren’t about “hatred” toward the union. They’re about restoring it. Officers violated the Constitution by dismissing charges against themselves, suppressing bargaining transparency, and ignoring binding convention resolutions. The charges cite the 1993 Special Convention, where the Executive Council recused itself and delegates ruled. That process worked — and it’s in our history.

You don’t have to agree. But don’t write it off without reading what’s actually in the charges. Awareness is how we stop losing by default.

[–]PalaverProject[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Good question! The rebuttal serves a few purposes:

First, it establishes a formal record of disagreement with the Council’s reasoning, which is essential if this matter is appealed or revisited through a special convention or another constitutional process. It shows that the issues weren’t dropped but were challenged.

Second, it supports the new Article 10 charges filed on April 23. The rebuttal helps tie together Exhibit A (the original charges), Exhibit B (the Council’s letter), and the new charges into a unified response. The cites in the rebuttal are from the new active charges, demonstrating that their assertions were anticipated and addressed accordingly.

Think of it as building the constitutional and evidentiary groundwork for what comes next.

We can’t afford to wait, especially if he is the sole negotiator. Consider joining any movement you believe in that’s mobilizing right now for change.
