He was a little vague about that, I can’t imagine if we have a solid agreement July 30 that we go on strike before a vote.

He didn't say. I would guess that if we have a TA in hand that he believes in and would recommend, he'll keep us working. I may be wrong and that's why he was saying we only had 15 weeks instead if 17 a while back, accounting for two weeks for ratification vote.
I don't think he gave specific words on that
But if we don't agreement within next week it will have to be an in-person vote because there's no way that they can get all that paperwork together send out the ballots and wait to get them back I time before it's too late

If he has a handshake agreement that he is happy with before Aug 1, he will not put us on strike. That is a fact

I'm sure UPS would make that a side note on the TA. They agree to it as long as he keeps us working through the voting window.

If we don't have an agreement in a couple weeks I would expect some shippers to start leaving and alot of off the street hires and management to start getting DOT physicals.

DOT cards aren't going to help if they don't have people with CDLs. They can have as many package drivers as they want to replace us, there'll be no packages to deliver.

Congress can't, they can address the RLA. There is a small loophole that would allow biden himself to do it, but I have no idea how he can do that and save face.

If Bidens economy begins to tank I just wonder what he could do to force us in. Guess he could allow the company to terminate anyone who doesn't report to work.??

That's a bad, bad scenario brother. I really hope that's something we're not faced with.
