Johan Sheridan at The Hill reports The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has filed a lawsuit against New York State and its Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) in Federal Court, accusing the State of passing an illegal new State Law to regulate Private Sector Labor Relations that are already under Federal authority.
