Labor

Where We Stand

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has several important policy priorities related to union-management relations laws and union financial disclosure. These priorities include ensuring that the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) maintains the ability to issue balanced decisions, the method by which unions are recognized in the workplace, state and municipal attempts to encroach on the jurisdiction of the NLRB, and appropriate oversight of labor union finances.

We oppose a radical agenda in Congress to rewrite our nation's employment laws that would restrict flexibility in the workplace, expand liability and damages under federal employment related laws, add new criminal penalties under safety and health laws, eliminate arbitration, and mandate new paid leave requirements.

Unfortunately, labor realizes that their best chance for union organizing is through the NLRB, instead of the 112th Congress.
