The MOU is out, and because the ILWU has refused to give copies to their members, and because the ILWU asked the PMA not to give copies to longshoremen, the rumor mill is in high gear.
Just another unconventional move by the ILWU negotiating team, or an attempt to keep information from the rank-and-file while they ram the MOU through the ratification process?
The behavior of the ILWU directly conflicts with their belief that if the rank-and-file gets all the information, they will almost always do the right thing.
The new ILWU motto: Wining thru deception and bluff.
