[lbo-talk] National Labor Relations Board decisions were illegal, Supreme Court rules

[c b]

"The opinion was written by Justice John
Paul Stevens, one of the court's most liberal members, ( but not so
liberal in this care) who was joined by its most conservative voices,
Chief
Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and justices Antonin Scalia,
Samuel A. Alito Jr. and Clarence Thomas."

Labor groups lamented the Supreme Court ruling as
another successful delay tactic by companies seeking to
thwart unions.

"As has become the norm, workers are once again
penalized by corporate stall tactics," the AFL-CIO
general counsel Lynn Rhinehart said in a statement. "We
regret that as a result of the Court's decision, workers
in these cases will have to wait longer still for
justice."
