Northwest Talks To MN House Committee

Northwest Airlines General Counsel Ben Hirst testified in front of the Minnesota House Commerce and Labor Committee on Friday. Chairman Joe Atkins said there are more hearings scheduled and it seemed obvious from the first meeting that committee members still needed to hear from Delta about jobs, the hub and headquarters. Atkins said those who testified kept referring to Delta officials for final answers. Atkins said there are several more hearings scheduled concerning the merger of Northwest and Delta.
