Yes. I am a Flight attendant. He will start with the company's internal pilots union then go from there.
I and some other flight attendants are going to resist the NoS at Skywest. We don't have a union like the others that are in the news (internal one only) to voice our concern to, but we are not going to deal with this crap!!

I presume you are a SkyWest FA... PLEASE resist at checkpoints, even if it means flight cancellations... activist flight crews are a key point of leverage for us in this battle. If enough of you resist the system grinds to a halt. Remember that TSA has chosen to go to war with you and your customers. PLEASE do not submit to government-sanctioned sexual assault as a job requirement... and PLEASE tell your captain friend how many passengers sympathize with him, and stand with him and his daughter.
We've got a concurrent thread going here started by a 17-year-old girl worried about exactly this kind of checkpoint abuse:

I hate for her to read stories like yours but this is the evil truth of what is going on. Prurience disguised as security.
EVIL.
