Air Transport Association tries again to overturn new labour rule

For the second time, the Air Transport Association has filed in US District Court to overturn the change in union voting imposed by the National Mediation Board. The organisation said the change was not only arbitrary and capricious but ignored the NMB's earlier interpretation saying that only Congress could change the rule. It also challenged the legality of how the rule was initially published as a Notice of Proposed Rule Making, saying it was illegal.
