Executive Order 12952: Amendment to Executive Order No. 12950

President: Bill Clinton

Added the International Brotherhood of Firemen and Oilers to the unions covered by the Metro-North emergency board.

Status: Completed/expired. Is Executive Order 12952 still in effect? No. Executive Order 12952 is completed or expired. See Federal Register record.

What does Executive Order 12952 do?

EO 12952 made a single change to EO 12950 two days after the Metro-North board was created: it added the International Brotherhood of Firemen and Oilers to the attached list of labor organizations. That brought the union’s dispute within Presidential Emergency Board 226’s investigation and temporary status-quo process. The board reported and terminated on April 21, 1995.

Administration position: The amendment expanded the board’s covered parties by one union. It did not change the board’s powers, timetable or settlement standard.
