    Exhibit A Charge IV: Violation of Article 16.3 - Bypassing Required Membership Ratification

    We start the episode with a revelation from the Matty Rose report; one that can have dire consequences for an already beleaguered NALC Executive Council. We then read Charge IV of Exhibit A (the original six charges) We cite the Nolan Award and lay out, clear as day, that mediation, not arbitration, had been done.
