National Right to Work Foundation attorneys fight Labor Board’s decision to promote monopoly unionism in virtually every workplace in America
The motion was filed this afternoon in conjunction with National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.
The Foundation's case challenges the new rules requiring virtually every employer in the country to post biased information about employee rights online and in the workplace, even if they've never committed a violation or been accused of unfair labor practices.
Meanwhile, the new rules do not require union officials to issue information about workers' rights to refrain from union membership or opt out of union dues.
Until the rule changes, employers were required to post notices of workers' rights only if a violation of labor law occurred.
National Right to Work Foundation attorneys argue that the NLRB has exceeded its authority granted by Congress and violated free speech guarantees of the First Amendment. No other federal agency has ever made it unlawful to fail to post a notice that wasn't required by Congress, which has prompted House Republicans to hold Congressional hearings on the matter.
