Customer Advisory: Rail Carrier Labor Negotiation Status Update

President Obama signed an Executive Order creating a Presidential Emergency Board (PEB) to investigate the dispute between the nation's largest freight railroads and two coalitions representing 11 unions. The president's action followed the National Mediation Board's (NMB) decision on September 6th to release the parties from federal mediation. The appointment of the PEB by the President extends the collective bargaining process for 60 days: 30 days for the PEB to investigate and make its recommendation, followed by a 30-day cooling off period.
