House Passes Bill Curbing NLRB's Authority
Provided further, That the Board shall have no power to order an employer (or seek an order against an employer) to restore or reinstate any work, product, production line, or equipment, to rescind any relocation, transfer, subcontracting, outsourcing, or other change regarding the location, entity, or persons who shall be engaged in production or other business operations, or to require any employer to make an initial or additional investment at a particular plant, facility, or location.
If enacted, the provisions of this bill would apply to any pending complaint before the Board.
While this measure has sufficient support in the House, it is unlikely to gain traction in the Senate, where Democrats maintain a slim majority. Nonetheless, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) introduced a companion bill (S. 1523) in that chamber last week, although it is not expected to advance.
