Manage episode 441288298 series 2967863
This episode features a question-and-answer session with Mike Caref, focusing on his plans for the NALC presidency and addressing various concerns facing letter carriers. Caref begins by acknowledging the recent convention and expressing gratitude for the support he received. He then clarifies his position regarding the CLC, stating that while he is no longer formally involved, he maintains positive relationships with many members and remains open to future collaboration.
The Q&A covers a wide range of topics: Caref discusses his significant accomplishments and failures as a union representative, highlighting his success in securing settlements in the grievance process while acknowledging the shortcomings of the national executive council. He explains his vision for leadership, emphasizing the need for a more aggressive and member-focused approach. He states his priorities are to ensure that the union's actions are always transparent and clearly benefit the membership; to ensure that grievance procedures are efficient and effective; and to implement a strong and unified training program for all union members.
He discusses the importance of member participation in the upcoming election, outlining strategies for mobilizing the membership, especially among table 2 carriers. He addresses concerns about a potential split vote and the possibility of Renfroe's re-election, emphasizing that his priority is Renfroe's defeat, even if it means not securing the presidency himself. He outlines his plans for improving the grievance process, particularly addressing the backlog of cases at Step B, advocating for a more assertive approach to contract enforcement and for increased utilization of arbitration. He addresses concerns about the lack of transparency in contract negotiations and emphasizes the need for regular updates to the membership, advocating for open bargaining and a strong public campaign to build support for the union's demands. He also discusses issues such as start times, Sunday work, and the need to eliminate the CCA classification and ensure fair pay for all letter carriers. He emphasizes the importance of taking a long-term view to build a stronger union, and he closes by urging members to participate in the upcoming Columbus Day rallies and to join the BFN movement.
