How about an update on Ponca City negotiations, we hear the company is now not wanting to follow the national wage and signing bonus package.

Things are not going well in Ponca at all. The company is purposely misinforming people on where they stand on issues and trying to make it seem like the union is making something out of nothing. They are fueling many rumors to try and disrupt the members in any way possible. This has been my first "go round" with contracts and it has just been a real eye opener to me on the true importance of having the union to back us. I hope things go better for you all than what we are dealing with in PC.
