Communications Workers of America activists and some American Airlines? workers today are handing out leaflets to passengers at 15 U.S. airports, including the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, to voice their growing concern about the carrier outsourcing work.

Leafleting was scheduled to start at 10 a.m. at the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport?s Terminal D outside the American ticket counter.

Two weeks ago, a federal appeals court ruled that a lower court should not have blocked a union election by American passenger service agents.
