MEBA President Mike Jewell's statement on MEBA's persisting status as a "rogue union"

In his most recent campaign for the office of president of the Marine Engineers' Beneficial Association, current MEBA President Mike Jewell posted a detailed video statement describing his union's lingering status as a "rogue union" under sanctions from the AFL-CIO for violating Article XX of the Federation's constitution by raiding the Interlake Steamship Company fleet on two occasions. The Interlake fleet was covered by a current and valid AMO collective bargaining agreement at the time of the MEBA raids.
