[QUOTE="BigUnionGuy, post: 3810834, member: 4992"] 23% of the members voted on strike authorization. 120,000 members, didn't even bother to vote on their own contract. You call that "phenomenal leverage" ? Wow. Might want to check your IQ again. You must have missed that part in the IBT constitution, that grants the General President the ability to "interpret" it. Just as any Local Union principle officer, has that same leeway on "interpreting" Local Union bylaws. It's done with the best interests of the Union, and the members.... in general. I really hope you enjoy all the benefits of the new contract. :biggrin: -Bug- [/QUOTE]
