IAM FAILED US.
NOW IT’S TIME TO FIX IT.

For years, workers have paid premium dues while living under a divided agreement. If you were hired later, you got less — and you’re still paying full price.

One job. One standard. One future.

The failure in one sentence

This is the IAM model: pay more, accept less, and call it “representation.”

1) The 2016 deal

  • Lower standards were locked in for future employees
  • That “future employee” problem became everyday reality

2) The membership got split

  • Different hire dates → different outcomes
  • Same work, different futures

3) The cost never went down

  • Dues stayed high
  • The gap widened while members paid more
