Delaware Liberal

Settled Law

Let’s see…?  We have a rabidly anti-labor Supreme Court and corporation (Amazon) saying that the NLRB interfered with the Staten Island Union vote. So, how long do you figure it will take for the Republican Court to overturn NLRB vs Jones Steele, and vacate that vote?   When it happens I’m sure the sage legal minds will base their opinions on the well stablished precedent of “LOL. Fuck You, nothing matters.”

National Labor Relations Board v Jones & Laughlin Steel Corporation, 301 U.S. 1 (1937), was a United States Supreme Court case that upheld the constitutionality of the National Labor Relations Act of 1935, also known as the Wagner Act. The case represented a major expansion in the Court’s interpretation of Congress‘s power under the Commerce Clause and effectively spelled the end to the Court’s striking down of New Deal economic legislation.

The case arose after the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ordered Jones & Laughlin Steel to rehire workers who had been fired for seeking to unionize. Jones and Laughlin refused to comply on the grounds that the Wagner Act, which had established the NLRB, was unconstitutional.
