‘Corporate Coalition Wants’ Donald Trump’s Attorney General - Pam Bondi, ‘To Control Labor Law’

Union Press Associates reports in People’s World that a coalition of corporate chieftains and lobbies, including the Chamber of Commerce and the National Association of Manufacturers, wants to roll back Labor Law by putting unilateral power to revoke everything, including the existence of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), in the hands of President Donald Trump’s Attorney General, Pam Bondi. So warn two Labor Law experts - former NLRB Chair Lauren McFerran and Lynn Rhinehart, former General Counsel for the National AFL-CIO, writing for the Economic Policy Institute (EPI). Rhinehart and McFerran quote a joint letter from the corporate coalition, the so-called Coalition for a Democratic Workplace, to Bondi. The coalition reminds her a Trump Executive Order earlier this year gives the President ultimate power to overrule all Executive Agencies, even ones that by law are supposed to be independent, such as the NLRB. In short, the corporate coalition is extending Trump’s view of an all-powerful Presidency - the “Unitary Executive” backed by the U.S. Far Right and adopted by dictators worldwide - to U.S. Labor Law.
