No Time Out Over Recess Appointment Battle of NLRB's Authority


Posted: Mar 16, 2013

Employers and Acting National Labor Relations Board General Counsel Lafe Solomon continue to spar over the NLRB’s authority in the wake of the D.C. Circuit’s 2013 Noel Canning decision invalidating President Obama’s recess appointments of three NLRB Members. Attacks on the Board’s authority have morphed into an all-out offensive by employers to invalidate hundreds of adverse NLRB decisions and to freeze the Board from deciding current cases.

So far over 80 companies have cited the Noel Canning decision in their opposition to Board action. The most recent is 24-Hour Fitness USA Inc. It challenges the Board’s authority to decide the appeal from an Administrative Law Judge decision that the class action aspects of the company’s arbitration program were unlawful. In response, NLRB General Counsel Solomon argues that Noel Canning is not controlling because other federal circuit courts have disagreed with the D.C. Circuit and because the Board has a “longstanding practice not to acquiesce in adverse decisions by individual courts of appeals…”

New NLRB RulesJan 26, 2012
I'm curious as to why the NLRB would want the emails and phone numbers of employees before a union vote.  Isn't that protected personal information that businesses would not be able to give, like an address or Social Security number? http://www.nhregister.com/articles/2012/01/25/news/doc4f20db50d7540761245094.txt ...

NLRB Suing AZ And SD Over Secret BallotsApr 26, 2011
On the heels of President Obama’s union-controlled National Labor Relations Board complaint telling the Boeing Company where it should locate its second 787 assembly plant, the NLRB has now decided to sue two out of the four states where voters audaciously passed constitutional amendments last fall requiring secret-ballot elections on unionization.  Previously, the NLRB had threatened to sue all four states. However, those plans were delayed for a period of time as comp ...

NLRB Suing Boeing Because They Want To Expand A Apr 21, 2011
a second production line in S.C. The union said it should be in Puget Sound. The lawsuit comes almost 1-1/2 years after they started adding to the S.C. plant. Since when can't a company do business in another state? Since when does a union tell a company where and what they can do? Anyone who thinks a union is not out of control, this is an example of controlling companies and workers:     Boeing Co.'s $750 million aircraft plant in North Charleston is at the heart of a gr ...

Third Court Overturns Obama Recess AppointmentsJul 17, 2013
A third federal appeals court ruled Wednesday that President Obama violated the Constitution last year when he made recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board, adding more weight to the case as it goes before the Supreme Court in the justices’ next session. That ruling rejects Mr. Obama’s own interpretation that he can make appointments whenever he deems the Senate to be unable to give him “advice and consent” on his nominees. Full article ...

Appeals Court Strikes Down Obama Recess AppointmentsJan 25, 2013
Really? You mean the courts are finally going to start doing their job? A federal appeals court said Friday that President Obama overstepped his authority with a series of recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board. The case may wind up in the Supreme Court and determine how far the president can go in appointing people whose nominations would be filibustered in the Senate. The result could affect the standing of other Obama appointees, such as the head of the president's ...
