Executive Order 14349 of September 16, 2025

Establishing an Emergency Board To Investigate
Disputes Between the Long Island Rail Road Company and
Certain of Its Employees Represented by Certain Labor
Organizations

Disputes exist between the Long Island Rail Road
Company and certain of its employees represented by
certain labor organizations. The labor organizations
involved in these disputes are the Transportation
Communications Union, the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers and Trainmen, the Brotherhood of Railroad
Signalmen, the International Association of Machinists
and Aerospace Workers, and the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.
The disputes have not heretofore been adjusted
under the provisions of the Railway Labor Act, as
amended, 45 U.S.C. 151-188 (RLA).
Parties empowered by the RLA have requested that
the President establish an emergency board pursuant to
section 9A of the RLA (45 U.S.C. 159a).
Section 9A(c) of the RLA provides that the
President, upon such request, shall appoint an
emergency board to investigate and report on the
disputes.
NOW, THEREFORE, by the authority vested in me as
President by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States of America, including section 9A of the
RLA, it is hereby ordered:
Section 1. Establishment of Emergency Board
(Board). There is established, effective 12:01 a.m.
eastern daylight time on September 18, 2025, a Board
composed of a chair and two other members, all of whom
shall be appointed by the President to investigate and
report on these disputes. No member shall be
pecuniarily or otherwise interested in any organization
of railroad employees or any carrier. The Board shall
perform its functions subject to the availability of
funds.
Sec. 2. Report. The Board shall report to the
President with respect to the disputes within 30 days
of its creation.
Sec. 3. Maintaining Conditions. As provided by
section 9A(c) of the RLA, for 120 days from the date of
the creation of the Board, no change in the conditions
out of which the disputes arose shall be made by the
parties to the controversy, except by agreement of the
parties.
Sec. 4. Records Maintenance. The records and files
of the Board are records of the Office of the President
and upon the Board's termination shall be maintained in
the physical custody of the National Mediation Board.
Sec. 5. Expiration. The Board shall terminate upon
the submission of the report provided for in section 2
of this order.
