[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1285975, member: 42270"] Exactly. A lot of people don't really understand the process, which is fair because the IBT constitution is a bit of a bear to read. A strike authorization vote is only a vote to [B]authorize[/B] a strike. It is not a vote [B]to strike[/B]. The authority to strike, once authorized, is given to the [B]National Master Negotiating Committee[/B] [U][B]not[/B][/U] [B]to the individual locals/areas covered by a supplement[/B]. If the members vote down a strike authorization on the 3rd vote of their supplement, the agreement can be imposed by the NMNC. There's nothing (that I've found) in the IBT constitution that describes a scenario wherein a supplement is voted down along with a strike authorization and there's still an impasse.. [/QUOTE]
