We hoped to have an MOA for the new contract by now, ready for the NCCFT Executive Board and then membership to ratify. Due to the need to iron out some remaining details, this has been delayed.    We want to raise our profile, add some pressure.   For those of you who do not already have a T-shirt, you can stop by and pick one up in the NCCFT office, F3293.
