Overview Baltimore Local Section MOU meeting review MOU Path Forward MOU Timeline Questions (Discussion)

Meeting Representation : Baltimore 46 LS officers! (Out of 73 Total: 8 of 9 LSRRs) Central South Central Pacific South Midwest Northwest Mid-Atlantic Northeast

Baltimore , Some Comments ConcernSuggested Resolution Have LS been involved in MOU development? Now is the time for full and honest input and communication. Why are we doing this?Many LS don’t know what AIHA does or how we can work together, this will help. We are also clarifying roles. An explanatory “package” is neededIt’s coming along with at least two town hall meetings. Input is wanted. Need a process if an AIHA/LS discontinuance is ever needed That is being evolved. It’s not a step we ever hope to take. MOU is “heavy handed”Assure ample time for LS input and work to resolve any concerns
