Usapa is free to re negotiate every section. Now did the current sections ga away when usapa got elected? No they didn't, USapa can only change them with the agreement of management. So the Nic is the current list mandated by the TA, it exists in your Cba. Usapa can change it if it has a legitimate purpose for doing so. In the USA it is against the law for a union to change the minority's seniority to benefit the majority. Would changing the Nic. Benefit the east and harm the west? So simple a monkey could figure it out.
