  7) "We have tried, and remain willing, to advance discussions with the union"
  - This is laughable at best. After attempts to discuss a bridge agreement failed at the end of July, it wasn't until the first of September the next meeting was scheduled. Little was resolved and nothing on healthcare or retirement was resolved. ACE held to their position with little discussion on the matter. The next meeting wasn't scheduled until a mediator reached out and set up the next meeting for the last week in Oct. If someone were wanting things resolved do they wait 2 months?
  8) "We have made every good faith effort to reconcile the unions stated positions with our fiduciary duties"
  - Good faith efforts would include having supervisors scaring employees with permanent replacement if they don't cross the picket?  Under an Unfair Labor Practice strike, ALL positions are protected until ACE corrects the NLRB charges against them. Currently there are 5 NLRB/ULP charges.
