They called this meeting. This could be it guys! This could be the meeting that pushes them over that edge...that makes them realize that a release is necessary. If not, and this just some stupid attempt to restart pointless negotiations...then we hit the pavement. Why risk angering even a single NMB member and possibly delaying what we all want.
Again, the NMB will be looking at negotiating progress and the intent of the company to bargain. The fact that they ignored the federal court's order show that they will ignore anything the NMB rules as well. If THAT doesn't anger them, I don't know what will. We will be just as ready to strike when we are released, not to worry.
