Seventh Circuit -- Int'l Brohd of Teams v. Kienstra Precast

Terms of an intrastate CBA are not covered by the Federal Arbitration Act, as the workers involved occasionally carted loads into an adjacent state, making them interstate transport workers according to S1 of the Act.

Where a CBA governs interstate workers under S1 of the Act but the successor corporation later operates exclusively within the state, the workers under the CBA are still considered interstate workers.
