Dear Sir:
I am employed by Covenant Aviation Security at SFO, and I am in receipt
of your “second notice” dated _______________, 2013. Your notice
demands that I sign union membership and dues deduction authorization
cards, and pay full membership dues to the union. However, your records
should indicate that I am not a member of the union, and that I am
already on record as being a Beck objector. If your records do not
indicate this, then I will reiterate the following: I have no wish to be
a member of the union, and I object to supporting any of the union’s
political and nonrepresentational activities, as is my right under the
National Labor Relations Act and CWA v. Beck. This objection is
permanent and continuing in nature.
I request that you provide me with my procedural rights, including:
reduction of my fees to an amount that includes only lawfully chargeable
costs; notice of the calculation of that amount, verified by an
independent certified public accountant; and notice of the procedure
that you have adopted to hold my fees in an interest-bearing escrow
account and give me an opportunity to challenge your calculation and
have it reviewed by an impartial decision maker. Once you provide me with
the appropriate reduced fee amount I will meet all lawful financial
core requirements.
Sincerely,
______________________
