ChuckTurpen: The NMB has three members, and all seats are filled. This is the board that deals with our issues when negotiating.

You are thinking of the NLRB. It is a 5 person board, and three seats are unfilled. It does not have a quorum, and cant hear cases until at least one additional seat is filled. This group deals with unfair labor practices, and groups trying to unionize.

They are different. But I'm not a lawyer, and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night either.
