incorporating core workers' human rights conventions into international
aviation agreements; (3) the creation of a biannual Aviation Industry
Workforce-Management Summit endorsed and implemented by the Secretary
of Transportation; and (4) the need to improve labor management
relations within the aviation industry by increasing resources
