The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) recently gave businesses the go-ahead to misclassify employees as independent contractors.
In the wake of that and other horrible decisions, former board member and current AFL-CIO general counsel Craig Becker writes that the NLRB is "the administrative state, remade in Trump's image."
So how does that look?
Trump's NLRB is "purely reactionary..It has no vision of how the law should promote healthy and productive labor relations, but seeks only to erase the recent past."
Literally weeks after starting his job, the agency's general counsel asked for the files on every major decision of the Obama era so they might all be overturned.
