Testimony of Russ Brown, CEO RWP Labor
January 15, 2020
RWP Labor CEO Russ Brown testifies before the National Mediation Board on eliminating the Straw Man process required in railroad and airline decertifications. Brown works with and through a legal defense foundation to bring freedom of association to American independent employees.

Decertification of a union is nearly impossible for employees to achieve under the Railway Labor Act (RLA). An existing “Straw Man” procedure makes the process confusing and intimidating, requiring employees of a given class — pilots, baggage handlers, etc. — to run an RLA representative with at least 50 percent of employee signatures to force an election against a union. Instead of trying to win, the Straw Man must then convince employees to vote “no representative” to decertify the union.
The National Mediation Board (NMB) has proposed a new rule change that will simplify this process and make the waiting period for union votes more consistent and employee friendly.
Read more about the rule change in my recent article, published in the Washington Examiner here.
Washington D.C., May 30, 2018 – The Center for Independent Employees (“CIE”) applauds the Flexjet/Flight Options pilots for voting to decertify the International Brotherhood of Teamsters Union. Today, in Washington D.C., the National Mediation Board formally concluded the Flexjet/Flight Options labor union election. This is the first time in the 80-year history of the Railway Labor Act (“RLA”) that pilots have chosen a direct relationship with their employer rather than have a labor union interfering as a third party.
