NLRB’s Legal Challenge to CA Labor Board Law

NLRB Sues California to Block Labor Board Law

The National Labor Relations Board has filed a lawsuit to block a new California law (AB 288) empowering the state’s Public Employee Relations Board to oversee some private-sector labor disputes and union elections. The NLRB has also challenged a similar law (SB 8034) enacted in New York in September. Legislators in both states said the laws were spurred by President Trump’s firing of NLRB board member Gwynne Wilcox (D), which has left the board unable to function since January.
