Last Friday, I met with TWU Local 556 CISM Chairperson Eileen Rodriguez, the TWU Local 556 Negotiating Committee, and the TWU Local 556 1st Vice President Kristina Peterson to discuss ways we could support all 800+ Atlanta Flight Attendants. After fielding many phone calls and seeing some of you face to face in the lounge last week, the decision was made to contact everyone impacted by this decision.

Orlando’s own David Reed (Board Member at Large) is one of the Members of that Committee. Please reach out to them at elliott@twu556.org.
