Press Releases

Today, Republican Members of the House Education and the Workforce Committee demanded the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) end its job-destroying activist agenda. In a letter to NLRB Acting General Counsel Lafe Solomon, members describe a number of actions by the Obama labor board that call into question the objectivity and credibility of the office, including the NLRB’s most recent effort to force The Boeing Company to relocate a South Carolina assembly line to Washington.

As the Republican members note, “Taken together, your actions threaten future economic growth and job creation and reflect an unsavory culture of union favoritism. We demand you cease your bureaucratic activism immediately and restore the objectivity that is essential to the effectiveness and credibility of the General Counsel’s office.”

Education and the Workforce Republican signees include:

 

Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC)

Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC)

Rep. Duncan D. Hunter (R-CA)

Rep. Tim Walberg (R-MI)

Rep. Todd Rokita (R-IN)

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC)

Rep. Kristi Noem (R-SD)

Rep. Martha Roby (R-AL)

Rep. Dennis Ross (R-FL)

Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA)
