While Scott Kirby attempts to deflect blame on the FAA, weather and everything in between, further flight delays are a direct result of poor planning by United Airlines executives. As pilots, we willingly disrupt our own plans and miss family obligations when delays or cancellations happen, and are ready to go above and beyond heading into a busy July 4 travel weekend to make sure passengers get to where they need to go, as we always have. The company is dragging its feet on taking any proactive measures to mitigate further delays, including on settling a new contract with us that will improve our quality of life, upgrade our scheduling system, and fundamentally prioritize the well-being of pilots. @ALPAPilots@UnitedPilots@united
Reclamo, a new app, can help workers recover stolen wages.
By answering questions with a worker advocate users can put together a case and file legal claims in an hour.
The app has already helped workers recover $1 million in lost wages.

This is VERY good and past time! Flight Attendants should not have to use our bodies (the insane way it works today) as the barrier between attackers and the integrity of the flight deck. @ALPAPilots
Our flying partners in Guam need our help. Thousands of residents in Guam still don't have water or electricity two weeks after powerful Typhoon Mawar hit the island — the strongest storm to blow across the island in more than two decades.
BREAKING:
Trump just said on his social platform that his attorneys have been informed that he's been indicted in the classified documents investigation.
The United Airlines pilots union has voted UNANIMOUSLY to authorize a strike vote.
Earlier this year the pilots' unions at American Airlines and Southwest both voted to authorize strikes with 99% of pilots voting yes.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of a concrete company that wanted to sue a union because a strike cost them money.
The 8-1 decision means the company, Glacier Northwest Inc., can sue the union over a strike where truck drivers left wet concrete in their trucks.
Thank you to all the flight attendants out there. They are safety professionals who are critical to the safety of every flight. They deserve our attention and respect. #InternationalFlightAttendantDay
Delta is the only major airline without a flight attendants union.
So today tons of Delta workers and their supporters rallied at the Atlanta airport with @DeltaAFA to support unionization.
Today Delta workers from multiple workgroups - flight attendants, mechanics, ramp workers, drivers, pilots, and more - came together at ATL airport for an energizing morning of union power and worker solidarity ✊
In case you didn't already know, here's the quickest rundown we can give as to why writers are striking. Let's get the word out for anyone who's still confused: this is about the survival of writing as a sustainable career, period #WGAStrong
The California Assembly just passed a bill to limit security deposits to one month's rent.
San Francisco tenants have had to pay as much as $15,000 up front for a $5,000 apartment, the city's average 2br price tag.
California would be the 12th state to cap security deposits.
