As a taxpayer subsidized nonprofit organization, the financial records of your Local are subject to public scrutiny. If there is malfeasance going on, it isn't just the members - put the public - that's getting screwed.
Who said I'm not pro-union? I'm unhappy with my Local. No taxpayer subsidized nonprofit organization deserves protection by maintaining secrecy. You've knocked TriMet for pulling this kind of crap - why protect the union for doing the same?
You get all fired up about Trimet incompetence, secrecy, management stonewalling, selective enforcement of policy, etc. - but somehow it's O.K. by you when your union does the same thing.
How could your Local possibly be more weak? Only 1 out of 15 properties represented by 757 even has a contract. You guys have been without one for going on 2 years now. Your President is a convicted drunk driver, your Board has rejected reasonable calls to deal with the misbehavior of its own members, rejected reasonable requests for information - and now according to you has some inconsistencies in their finances.
How exactly is your protecting them making your union stronger - or you a legitimate advocate for competence in the organizations that both employ and represent us?

Stop protecting the bastards.
Jeff I understand that your no union supporter, but I (and Chris Day) are avid pro union people.
Given that fact, we do not want to cause any damage to the union if we don't have too!
Al,

I want the truth, as do others, but I do not want to weaken the union right now in the middle of all this anti union shit going on!

Hypocrite alert - and this time, it's you.
