District Judge Strikes Down NLRB Rule on Unionizing

Judge James Boasberg of the Washington, D.C. federal district rebuked a National Relations Board panel for approving without a quorum a new rule.

Judge James Boasberg of the Washington, D.C. federal district rebuked a National Relations Board panel for approving without a quorum a new rule that shortens the time between filing for a union election and the actual voting, reports the Daily Journal.

Without its lone Republican member, the panel had voted (2 to 0) to implement the rule starting April 30. Management lawyers oppose the new rule, arguing that it does not give businesses enough time to lobby employees against unionizing.
