The New Guy at the NLRB
Well, the typical situation with government appointees strikes again. A former SEIU and AFL-CIO leader was just added to the National Labor Relations Board. It took 60 years to get the existing NLRA rules and processes under control and operational, though slanted toward letting the union say anything they want in private to employees. I highly recommend watching closely what happens with this addition to a board responsible for managing employee/union/management disputes. No predictions from me at this time. I want to believe that the new guy will put the letter of the law and protecting employees over the intersts of both the union and management. We'll see how far faith takes me.
Faith? In the federal government? When it comes to labor? And here I thought you were drug free. hahahah
