Acting NLRB General
Council Leaf Solomon |
The NLRB Acting General Council Leaf Solomon filed a complaint against Boeing charging the company violated Federal Labor Law by building a plant in North Carolina. The claim is the company is building a plant in a Right To Work State to avoid hiring union labor. This ridiculous claim finally places Obama's Radical NLRB Appointments on display for all to see.
Boeing has fired back, "This claim is legally frivolous and represents a radical departure from both NLRB and Supreme Court precedent," Michael Luttig, Boeing's general counsel, said in a statement. "Boeing has every right under both federal law and its collective bargaining agreement to build additional U.S. production capacity outside of the Puget Sound region." Boeing noted that it announced plans to build a new factory in South Carolina, a right to work state, 17 months ago, The plant is nearing completion and the company has already hired 1,000 workers.

Obama's Most Egregious
Recess Appointment |
Senator DeMint blasted the NLRB Complaint against Boeing.
"This is nothing more than a political favor for the unions who are supporting President Obama's re-election campaign. Unfortunately, it comes at the expense of hundreds of jobs in South Carolina and thousands of jobs nationwide. There is no doubt that if the National Labor Relations Board's claim against Boeing moves forward, it will have a chilling effect on job growth in my state and in right-to-work states across the country. Using the federal government as political weapon to protect union bosses at the expense of American jobs cannot be tolerated. I intend to use every tool at my disposal as a United States Senator to stop the President from carrying out his malicious act." Read More The Washington Examiner:
Why didn't Boeing Consider New Jersey for Its New Plant?
The answer is obvious, "New Jersey is Not a Right To Work State". If it was, there may have been an opportunity for thousands of new Jobs to be created by not only Boeing but a myriad of other Businesses relocating here, but they will never come to New Jersey because of the current NJ Legislature Democrat Majority's historic hostility towards Business, including their refusal to consider any meaningful reforms that would attract new business or existing businesses to relocate to the State.
As the Republican members note, “Taken together, your actions threaten future economic growth and job creation and reflect an unsavory culture of union favoritism. We demand you cease your bureaucratic activism immediately and restore the objectivity that is essential to the effectiveness and credibility of the General Counsel’s office.”
