Caroline O'Donovan at The Washington Post reports Amazon-owned Whole Foods has asked regulators to dismiss the results of a Union Election at a Philadelphia store, citing President Donald Trump’s firing of two leaders at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). Whole Foods is attempting to exploit some of the disruption Trump has caused inside Federal Agencies in the first weeks of his new term. The tactic could delay efforts by the United Food and Commercial Workers to organize Workers inside the E-Commerce Behemoth. Trump has fired two leaders at the NLRB, the agency that adjudicates disputes over Labor Organizing. That left the Nation’s top Labor Regulator with only two members, rendering it unable to do business due to a lack of quorum. Whole Foods’ objection to the election filed with the NLRB also accused the UFCW - which won the Philadelphia vote 130-to-100 - of intimidating and coercing Workers.
