We're at the line with our numbers in terms of counting those three factors. This won't work unless everyone of the units ratifies. At this point we've got to count those votes in each of those units. This is what we all would be walking away from. We'll be walking away from that cooperation.
Union leaders walk a very fine line.
You know my style, I'm not here with bullets every meeting. I strongly believe that cooperation is the best way to get to agreements. I still advocate for my members. We walk that very fine line and if we don't come to an agreement on this particular issue especially after two years of working together on a committee, there might be members in our organization that say, 'see, this is what cooperation gets you' and we're not going to get it anymore. It's going to limit our authority to advocate on behalf of our members in a cooperative fashion.
