What, exactly, is the virtue of the cause?

There are problems with the RLA, however, you want to replace with what? How well connected is this group in DC (who ever it is leading the charge) that you can be sure voiding the RLA will result in something better for labor?

From the petition site:

If a petition gets enough support, White House staff will review it, ensure it’s sent to the appropriate policy experts, and issue an official response.
My guess is the policy experts will respond with a predictable history lesson about why wildcat strikes are bad for the national transportation infrastructure. In the meantime, maybe those storming the castle should watch Schoolhouse Rock and review how a Bill becomes a Law.
