Can't the Gov or POTUS call for a 30 day cool off?

If the contract is up, then you strike. Every light rail strike here gets a 30 day cool off here. Not sure from which level of gov't though.

Is that a bigger hammer than the gopper elites want to outlaw every last union? Seems to me the unions would want as many Dems in office as possible.

You would think this to be true. But from my experience is it local issues not the big picture. You would be surprised on the Trump supporters who wear union badges!

Just today (my local) a steward BTW, told the meeting that HRC had been indited by the FBI!! Yes a steward at a meeting! A Trump supporter of course.
