Proposed Election Rule Changes at the NMB
30-Second Brief on.....

The NMB’s proposed rule change would permit a majority of workers who actually vote to decide the election and would stop assigning “no” votes to workers who don’t participate. The official comment period for this proposed rule change closed on January 4. TTD and all aviation and rail unions await the final decision by the NMB on this important matter. Read More
