I'm sure USAPA will find a way to stall it though.
Stall...? That is a an ignorant charge.
It is USAPA that petitioned the NMB to provide a list of arbitrators to begin SLI arbitration, pursuant to MB.
And in case you didn't notice, the NMB provided that list of arbitrators months ago (despite the APA argument opposing the NMB), pursuant to their obligation to do so according to MB.
It is the APA that has demonstrated an unwillingness to begin SLI arbitration. The APA has stalled at performing their obligations.
