Btw, Brown intervened? Tell me he came down on the side of the unions.

(17,111 posts)Gov. Jerry Brown's late-hour decision to step into the Bay Area transit dispute will keep the trains rolling for at least another week, and possibly longer.
Late Sunday, Brown appointed a board to investigate the disagreement and report back to him in seven days.
By invoking a state law that allows the governor to step into matters affecting public health and safety, Browns action also prohibits a walkout or lockout while the board prepares its report.
Once Brown has the report in hand, the law allows him to ask a judge to order a 60-day cooling-off period.
