Elections Have Consequences: Labor Law Changes Anticipated Under Trump Administration, Part I
Episode 48
Friday, 22 November, 2024
Husch Blackwell attorneys Mary-Ann Czak and Rufino Gaytán join Labor Law Insider host Tom Godar in a post-election analysis of anticipated policy changes in connection with the incoming Trump administration. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) became stridently pro-union under the leadership of its General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo and the majority of the board members appointed by President Joseph Biden. Through decisions and general counsel memos, the board marched an aggressive path extending the reach of the National Labor Relations Act, including shortening the time for elections, upending a decades-long election process, stiffening remedies for unfair labor practices, and skewering employer policies in both union and nonunion settings.In Part I of our discussion, our guests explore both the process to be undertaken to appoint new board members and a new general counsel and the pace at which that might happen, as well as policy changes which could be expected even in the first days and months of the Trump administration. The discussion will carry over into Part II, where we will address specific decisions, as well as the risks and benefits of anticipating a more neutral NLRB on the horizon. Join us for this fascinating post-election discussion on the Labor Law Insider.
