American workers, entrepreneurs and other concerned people have correctly expressed outrage at the Obama National Labor Relations Board's persecution of the Boeing Co. for creating more than 1,000 new jobs in South Carolina over the objections of union bosses 3,000 miles away.
Just when attorneys thought the issue of class action waivers in mandatory arbitration clauses had been settled by the U.S. Supreme Court once and for all, a National Labor Relations Board ruling has called into question employers' ability to use arbitration clauses in employment contracts to prohibit class and collective actions. The Board's ruling has employers scrambling to review their employment contracts to ensure that they are not committing labor law violations.
Buffalo employees fired for posting Facebook messages about their working conditions will have to wait awhile to be reinstated.

The National Labor Relations Board is revising its rules governing the consideration of certain pleadings that ordinarily require action by a quorum of at least three Board Members. The revisions are being adopted to facilitate, insofar as it is possible, the normal functioning of the Agency during periods when the number of Board members falls below three, the number required to establish a quorum of the Board. The effect of the revisions is to provide the public with avenues for resolving certain issues, while deferring full review by the Board until a quorum has been restored.
