Both sides of the table covered

When Gary Delleverson walked into the room where Metro-North and the ACRE were conducting contract negotiations, what did he see? On one side of the table sat Ray Burney and the M-N negotiating team, on the other side of the table sat Mike Doyle and Tony Bottalico.

What was the common denominator among all parties involved? They all receive salaries from the MTA. The MTA had people on both sides of the bargaining table negotiating this contract. Where would their interests lie?

Were Mike and Tony totally free from any conflicts of interest?

The MTA has our ACRE officers on the payroll and the ACRE membership is being taken for a ride.
