Podcast: Upheaval at the NLRB

By Robert J. Ambrogi

Recently, President Obama caused a stir when he used his recess-appointment authority to name two union lawyers, Craig Becker and Mark Pearce, to the <a href="http://www.nlrb.gov">National Labor Relations Board</a>. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court recently heard arguments in a case that questions whether nearly two years' worth of decisions by the two sitting members constituted a legally authorized quorum. All this has focused unusual attention on the NLRB. <br /><br />This week on the legal-affairs podcast <a href="http://legaltalknetwork.com/podcasts/lawyer-2-lawyer/2010/04/two-appointments-the-future-of-the-nlrb/">Lawyer2Lawyer</a>, we discuss the state of affairs at the NLRB with two guests: Nancy Schiffer, associate general counsel of the <a href="http://www.aflcio.org/">AFL-CIO</a>, and <a href="http://www.morganlewis.com/bios/ccohen">Charles I. Cohen</a>, a former NLRB board member who is now senior counsel in the labor and employment practice at <a href="http://www.morganlewis.com/">Morgan Lewis & Bockius</a>. <br /><br />Listen to or download the show from the <a href="http://legaltalknetwork.com/podcasts/lawyer-2-lawyer/2010/04/two-appointments-the-future-of-the-nlrb/">Legal Talk Network</a>.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3958829-2695528025708629603?l=www.legaline.com%2Flawsites.html' alt='' /></div>
