Bill Would Limit NLRB Power

by | Jun 6, 2011 | News, Uncategorized

Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) has introduced a bill to limit the power of the NLRB.  Under H.R. 2118 the Board would retain the authority to sue individuals and companies, enforce or defend its own orders and appear in federal appeals courts. It would lose the ability to sue a state on the grounds that a state action conflicts with the NLRA.  The bill is in response to the Board’s actions against Utah, Arizona, South Carolina, and South Dakota for voter approved resolutions that ban “card check” and require secret ballot elections. “Deciding whether or not a state action violates federal law should be made by the DOJ, not a board of union friendly, politically motivated appointees,” Chaffetz said.
