Sept 14, 2015: “...Experts were taken aback by the scope of Walker’s proposals, which seek to undo decades of law and would gut the landmark National Relations Labor Act (NRLB) — adopted in 1935 and signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the height of the Great Depression.

“I’ve never seen anything like this,” said Ann Hodges, a professor at the University of Richmond who has studied labor law for more than 40 years. “This will take the breath away from anyone who’s worked in labor relations for any length of time. ... It’s pretty draconian.”

Walker’s plan also calls for prohibiting automatic withdrawal of union dues to be used for political purposes and forbidding union organizers to access employees’ personal information, such as their phone numbers.

Lee Adler, a labor law expert at Cornell University, said Walker’s proposals would eliminate workers’ rights and make it more difficult for people to join the middle class.”

March 31, 2015: Obama vetoes NLRB legislation

"In one of his first clashes with the new Republican-dominated Congress over labor policy, President Obama vetoed a GOP-backed resolution Tuesday that would halt a National Labor Relations Board rule making it easier for workers to hold so-called “ambush” union-organizing elections.

It was Mr. Obama’s second veto since Republicans took control of the Senate in January, following his rejection in February of a measure that would have expedited the construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline...."

Sept 2, 2015: NLRB and Small Business: Tensions Heightened Under Obama

"The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has pushed for rules that critics argue have favored unions and targeted the small business community. The board's latest controversial decision came last week, in a ruling that makes employers liable for labor violations committed by business partners and contractors.

The Hill reported five other NLRB rulings that were decided during President Obama's tenure that were against the best interest of small business. “There’s perhaps no labor board that has done more for organized labor than this one has,” Michael Lotito, an employment and labor attorney, told the The Hill. The labor board has “really put the wind back in the sails of unions,” said Beth Milito, NFIB Senior Legal Counsel, according to The Hill....."

The board's latest controversial decision came last week, in a ruling that makes employers liable for labor violations committed by business partners and contractors.

The twin criminal enterprises of unions and Democrats have thrills running up their legs. Franchises are the target and that significant source (franchises) of new jobs will take a real hit.

The popularity of the mandatory $15/hr min. wage is evidence of the same. It'll be tough on kids and first-time job-seekers, that's for sure.

“........Ultimately, the NLRB’s decision advances a few special interests while endangering 770,000 franchise businesses and countless firms that use outsourcing, which adds up to 8.5 million employees and temporary staff.”

So is this ruling bad for companies which outsource?

I’m all for it, if that is the case.

America needs to stop chasing jobs to foreign countries.
