Labor Secretary Marty Walsh says he hopes negotiators between railroads and some rail unions can reach new labor deals. But he said without a deal he expects Congress will step in and impose contracts on the unhappy rank-and-file union members.

The statement is a blow to the unions’ leverage as they seek to win a contract that their membership will accept. Two rail unions reached tentative labor deals with the railroads in September, ahead of a strike deadline, only to have their membership vote against ratifying them. “My goal is to get those two unions back at the table with companies and get this thing done,” Walsh told CNN Friday.

” He said that avoiding a strike “depends on the parties in negotiations stepping up to the plate.” The Association of American Railroads said it is counting on Congress to act if new deals can’t be reached. “No one wants a strike to happen, and everything we’ve done throughout this process has been focused on getting a deal done and avoiding even the threat of one,” said the group’s statement.

70 years ago employers were mistreating employees unions were critical. Now they are just corrupt,political, and keeping the worst employees from getting fired.Teachers deserve to be paid a well. what does their union do? donate millions to the democrats. Do nothing for their fee
