Celebrating Freedom, Unity, and the Power of Solidarity

Dear Flying Partners,

As we gather with loved ones and friends to celebrate Independence Day, we reflect on the values that define our nation - freedom, democracy, and the enduring pursuit of justice. These same principles are at the heart of our Union.

The Labor movement has long played a vital role in shaping a more just and equitable America that we live in today. Unions have stood shoulder to shoulder with everyday working people to secure rights, protections, and dignity in the workplace - freedoms that were hard-fought and must always be defended. As Flight Attendants and Union members, we know that our collective voice is our greatest strength. Now more than ever, we come together on this holiday, whether working in the skies or enjoying the day off, to share the same values we all hold dear in this career.

Today, we not only celebrate our country’s independence but also the unity and solidarity that empower us to stand up for what’s right. Together, we carry forward a legacy of advocacy, progress, and resilience.

On behalf of your MEC Officers, we wish you a safe and meaningful Independence Day. May it be a time of rest, reflection, and pride in all that we’ve achieved.

In Solidarity,
