SEIU is a true international union with the resources to represent it’s members. EAA is affiliated with a police union. SEIU Has the Power in it’s member base to shut down the city, only the LAPD and IBEW share that similar power. EAA had a failed strike. EAA is in crisis and the membership has seen the future that is why they defected by an overwhelming majority to SEIU Forming the professionals section at SEIU 721.

Certainly you are a big fan of EAA, and maintain the blinders that they have had over the members for a long time, it is very factual that the members of EAA are asking to leave EAA. Speaking of matters such as the nurses or corruption in other areas is a weak attempt at deflecting the question at hand, Is EAA in Crisis? With the lack of funds at EAA short of a Pay cut to all staff or increasing the members dues they will be unable to maintain the current members they still have.
This website is 100% independent, it is a shame you can’t read all of the material here to see that for yourself.

SEIU members in Los Angeles were victimized by one of the most appalling cases of union corruption in recent history.

Members saw their money illegally used to support the city council race of Martin Ludlow. Ludlow was sentenced for conspiracy to illegally funnel money from SEIU Local 99 to his campaign and ordered to pay $36,000 in restitution.

Four of the last eight Teamsters union presidents have been criminally indicted.

UNITE HERE has been found guilty of invading employees’ privacy and ordered to pay $17 million for defaming medical professionals, and it has been sued by its own employees after the union slashed their staff’s key retirement benefit by 95%.

In the same scandal, former SEIU head Janett Humprhies collaborated with Ludlow to use union funds to pay the salaries of six union employees working on his campaign. One of Humphries’ lawyers said Ludlow and allies “were doing what unions do” and added, “The testimony has raised serious red flags about the integrity of union politics in Los Angeles.”
