Article in the “NYU Annual Survey of American Law” examines the NLRB’s failure to fully enforce workers’ Supreme Court protections from being forced to subsidize union politics and lobbying
Springfield, VA (August 14, 2015) – The National Right to Work Foundation’s Vice President and Legal Director, Raymond J. LaJeunesse, Jr., has published his latest article, which appears in the New York University Annual Survey of American Law.
LaJeunesse’s article, titled “The National Labor Relations Board Has Failed to Enforce Fully Workers’ Rights Under Communications Workers V. Beck Not to Subsidize Unions’ Political and Other Nonbargaining Activities,” examines the National Labor Relations Board’s insufficient and lackluster enforcement of workers’ rights not to subsidize union bosses’ political activity.
From the article, and according to LaJeunesse:
“… there is a systemic problem with the enforcement of workers’ Beck rights. Since Beck was decided in 1988, the NLRB has dismally failed to protect adequately the statutory rights of workers not to subsidize union political, ideological, and other nonbargaining activities. Indeed, the Board majority under President Obama seems bent on totally eviscerating those rights.”
