All the scare tactics have come out again. I don't believe in them. But I do think we have something different to deal with this time.

The NPRM gives the company a valid excuse, in the eyes of the NMB, to delay negotiations an extra 2 years without penalty.

Doesn't the company want ULR? That's also going to be affected by the NPRM and didn't make it into the TA. I wonder how big of bargaining chip that is?
