WFI Memo: Big Labor & 2011
In the court of public opinion, labor bosses have already lost, and in a few years, we might look back at NRLB rulings on matters such as “ambush” elections and Specialty Healthcare as the death rattle of Big Labor’s influence. And we’ll be proud for helping hasten that day. Continue reading

Last October, angered by Pearce’s and Becker’s expressed intention to abandon board processes and procedures to push through a final rule with insufficient deliberation and to deprive Hayes of the opportunity to write a dissent if he so chose, he threatened to resign.
