Where the law doesn't protect labor organizing, there's violence--a lesson as the NLRB is under attack. Hope you'll take an hour to listen to me and @JonathanHafetz discuss Matewan, John Sayles' 1987 masterpiece about the West Virginia Mine Wars.

@emilysbremer I see what you did there.

I am so excited to attend my first @COSELLWorkLaw, Colloquium on Scholarship in Employment & Labor Law. Two days of listening to the smartest labor scholars in the country (& humbly offer an idea of my own) makes this nerd feel like I'm headed to Disney World. I’m gonna be all:

@ChadSquitieri @tphillips @beau_baumann If you happen to engage with the NLRB (or, perchance my piece about the NLRB), I’d love to take a look too…

[Fred Jacob @fredbjacob]

@tphillips @StanLRev Congrats! It’s a good one.

Labor law and NLRB stans, from the depths of the NLRB library, I bring you “The Washington World” magazine’s September 1963 primer on the Labor Board.

I like the headline, “NLRB bans unfairness by boss or worker.” Just doing our jobs, ma’am.

@gracabi @MattBruenig @cornellilr Will it be live streamed?

After Loper Bright, what's next for the @NLRB? In a new @PowerAtWorkBlog piece, Anne Marie Lofaso breaks down why the Board still holds significant power to shape labor law — even without Chevron deference. Read now at https://t.co/1L4BdCxPPO and subscribe!

@tphillips @SSRN @MinnesotaLawRev @AntMoffa Great news on the @MinnesotaLawRev placement! Congrats to you both.

@AnneMarieLofaso and I are thrilled that “Beyond Loper Bright: Iterative Construction at the @NLRB” has found a home with the @uclawjournal!

For those of you still over here, @AnneMarieLofaso and I have posted our paper, Beyond Loper Bright: Iterative Construction at the National Labor Relations Board. https://t.co/6oNQlP6XGS

One of the best.

Today in #LaborHistory: Norma Rae hits theaters! Inspired by real-life union activist Crystal Lee Sutton, the film captures the resilience and courage of workers in the face of exploitation. A must-see for anyone who believes in the power of collective action! March 2, 1979

Congress wanted labor policy to be made by experts, not generalists. Courts have recognized the Board's delegated discretion for decades, which Loper Bright does not call into question.
