Article re: Yesterday's Hearing
Sarahs testimony was great.
NLRB
The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee set a May 12 hearing to consider the future of the
U.S. middle class, but most of the session was taken up with questions and debate over a National Labor
Relations Board proceeding involving America's largest exporter, Boeing Co.
Former labor secretary Robert B. Reich and Heather Boushey, senior economist with the Center for American
Progress, addressed widening income gaps and economic stresses on middle class families, but senators asked
more questions of J. Michael Luttig, Boeing's general counsel, who was invited to appear by Ranking Member
Michael B. Enzi (R-Wyo.) and discussed the NLRB acting general counsel's April 20 complaint alleging that
the company illegally transferred jetliner production from Washington state to South Carolina in retaliation for
Puget Sound area employees having supported past strikes by the International Association of Machinists (77
DLR AA-1, 4/21/11).
Luttig called the unfair labor practice complaint preposterous on its face and Enzi blasted it as not the way to
encourage new job creation in the U.S. but Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) questioned the appropriateness
of vigorous and even vicious attacks on the NLRB, while Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), chairman of the
committee, said the Boeing case has become a political thing and warned that what borders on the unethical
is for people in the political branchthe Congressto begin to interfere in a judicial process and to try to make
it a political matter.
Former NLRB Member Sarah M. Fox, now legal counsel for the AFL-CIO, told the committee that the National
Labor Relations Act was intended not only to protect workers but to be part of a positive national economic
strategy, and argued that the only thing extraordinary about the complaint against Boeing is the size of the
company and the magnitude of the business decision that is in dispute.
Committee Leaders Offer Differing Views
Harkin opened the hearing noting that his state experienced more than 200 plant closings in 2010, with a loss of
nearly 12,000 jobs, and said Congress must make smarter policy choices to restore the fundamental promise of
the American Dream.
One of those smarter policy choices, Harkin said, would be to restore the voice of working Americans by
strengthening workers' rights, and defending the agency that protects those rightsthe National Labor
Relations Board.
Harkin said NLRB career employees have come under vicious and unfair political attack for carrying out their
duties under the law in what he alleged was part of a larger political campaign that we are seeing across the
country to unfairly scapegoat workers and their unions for our nation's problems.
But Enzi said the acting general counsel issued a complaint against Boeing that left employers across the
country greatly disturbed that a bureaucrat serving in an acting capacity could direct U.S. companies about
where to locate facilities.
Among his concerns, Enzi said, is whether NLRB is targeting the 22 states which have right-to-work laws like
South Carolina's. Those states, Enzi said, have been an engine of new job creation and have attracted foreign
employers to the United States. Enzi said he and his colleagues will fight to oppose the creation of any deterrent
to investment in right-to-work states, and he charged that the NLRB complaint against Boeing shows this
administration has yet to get the message.

NLRB-FOIA-00001096
Reich, Boushey Stress Need for Viable Middle Class
Reich, now a professor of public policy at the University of California at Berkeley, told the panel that the U.S.
economy is in a lopsided recovery, with stock prices and executive compensation on the rise, but the average
worker not getting much out of the recovery.
Workers have adopted coping mechanisms to deal with economic adversity in the past, such as having two
spouses working, Reich observed, but there's a limit on how many women with young children can go to
work and he commented that service jobs recently created in restaurants and other businesses do not pay very
much.
Reich said Americans went into debt and used their homes as sources of wealth until a housing bubble burst,
depriving them of their last coping mechanism. Now, he said, there is not enough money in the middle class
to keep the country running, while the wealthiest Americans have become even richer.
Reich said he hears a common refrain that the United States cannot raise taxes on those with the highest
incomes or greatest wealth, but added, I frankly don't know what they're talking about!
Boushey told the panel that supply-siders believe the key to economic growth is for government to reduce
taxes and limit regulation in order to spur investment, but small businesses report that their single largest
concern is poor sales revenue.
Stating that lowering wages and a hollowed out middle class means that consumers can demand less and less
each year, Boushey said when every employer focuses solely on reducing wages at the expense of all else,
this has devastating consequences for the economy overall.
The economist said without fear of retaliation, collective bargaining helped us grow.
Boeing Lawyer Challenges NLRB Complaint
Luttig, who served as a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit before resigning to join
Boeing, told the panel that the NLRB complaint is enormously consequential for the company, which already
has received about 850 orders for its long-awaited 787 Dreamliner airplane.
Most Dreamliner production will take place in the Puget Sound area of Washington state where IAM represents
Boeing employees, but Luttig said the demand for the Dreamliner required the company to build a second
assembly line. Boeing considered Washington, South Carolina, and other locations and made a considered
business judgment based on a host of considerations that favored South Carolina, he said.
Stating that the company has invested $1 billion in a state-of-the-art facility in North Charleston, S.C., Luttig
argued that alleging the company made its decision in retaliation for the earlier strike activity by Washington
workers was insupportable. No company spends a sum like Boeing's investment out of spite, the lawyer said.
Calling the unfair labor practice complaint a breathtaking substitution of the board for the management of an
American company, Luttig argued that concern about the NLRB action might make companies reluctant to
expand into a right to work state like South Carolina. He said companies also might hesitate before building
facilities and employing workers in a state that does not have a right to work law, fearing that a later attempt to
move to a right to work state might be challenged as illegal under the NLRA.
Calling the NLRB complaint legally unfounded and irresponsible, Luttig said it should be of concern to all.
Former NLRB Member Says Case Not Extraordinary
But Fox said NLRB cases alleging unlawful transfers of work by employers were not extraordinary, and she
said that the NLRB complaint alleges that Boeing engaged in just such a transfer of work to South Carolina
because the firm's Washington employees had exercised their right under the NLRA to engage in strikes.
Stating that NLRB is responsible for protection of employee rights including the right to strike, Fox said there
was nothing extraordinary about this complaint.
Americans have a right to expect that statutory rights will be enforced, Fox said, adding that recent attacks on
the agency have been disturbing.
Reich Opposes Relentless Attacks' on Labor
Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.) told Reich that he assumed the economist supported what NLRB was trying to do,
but Reich said he would not prejudge the case and called it a distraction from the Senate committee's work of
considering the issue that was the purpose for the hearing.
NLRB-FOIA-00001097
Noting that the case had not even begun a process that would include an administrative law judge hearing,
board review, and possible consideration by the courts, Reich said it was inappropriate to prejudge the outcome
of the case.
Asked by Isakson whether he knew of any time when NLRB had made a decision to retroactively invalidate a
capital investment of $ 1 billion, Reich said there had been no NLRB decision and he was not an NLRB
historian. However, Reich responded that as a history buff with regard to labor, I am shocked and deeply
upset by the relentless attack on organized labor, on unionization, and the rights of employees in this country to
unionize.
NLRB Process, Effect of Complaint Debated
Blumenthal, in his first term representing Connecticut, told Luttig that he is troubled by the attack on the
NLRB process, which he observed is at a very incipient state, and asked the Boeing general counsel for his
reaction.
I don't see a vicious attack on the NLRB, Luttig said. On the facts here, he said, the acting general counsel
has brought a public policy issue of some import.
But Blumenthal said the unfair labor practice case involves statements about the Dreamliner decision allegedly
made by Boeing executives, and the context in which those remarks were made and in which they should be
interpreted. Calling that classically the kind of factual dispute that cannot be resolved before litigation even
begins, Blumenthal said NLRB's case against Boeing should not be prejudged.
Blumenthal also asked Luttig whether he believed that the company faced inevitable defeat in the unfair labor
practice case before NLRB, and the Boeing lawyer replied that I presumptively expect to lose. He said he
based that opinion on institutional reasons that the general counsel and the board will share the same view of
the law, but expressed confidence that the company ultimately would prevail in a court review of a board order.
Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) asked Luttig how long it could take to obtain judicial review of an adverse
NLRB ruling, and the lawyer said it could take about two years. Alexander asked whether there are Boeing
suppliers in Washington now considering whether to locate operations in or near South Carolina in anticipation
of the company's plan to build three Dreamliners per month there.
Luttig agreed that suppliers are trying to make plans and decisions, and agreed with Alexander that waiting
several years for a resolution of the NLRB complaint will leave not only Boeing but also other companies in
doubt about their rights and business options.
Alexander asked whether it was unethical for the Senate committee to be considering such an issue at a
hearing, and Luttig agreed that it was not improper.
Harkin Questions Senate Hearing Boeing Dispute
But Harkin expressed regret that so much of the hearing had been devoted to the Boeing dispute rather than
broader issues about the economy and the middle class. He also said he didn't think a Senate hearing on the
dispute was appropriate.
The committee chairman noted that in Pillsbury Co. v. FTC, 354 F.2d 952 (5th Cir. 1968), an administrative
agency order against a company was overturned after a federal appeals court concluded that a Senate
committee's conducting a hearing on the dispute while it was pending before the agency violated due process
rights of one of the parties.
Harkin also noted that on May 11, Jim McNerney, Boeing's president and chief executive officer, wrote an op-
ed piece in the Wall Street Journal that challenged the NLRB action, but the executive also wrote that [t]he
NLRB's overreach could accelerate the overseas flight of good, middle-class American jobs.
Harkin said the company is a major supplier to the federal government, earning about $19.5 billion from
government sales, and Harkin would have preferred that McNerney include assurances in his op-ed piece that
Boeing does not intend to move jobs out of the United States.
Luttig said the executive did not make a veiled threat at all but only a general observation. Luttig offered his
own assurances on behalf of Boeing that the company has no plan to export jobs from the United States.

you get a chance read GC memo 11-08 ( I sent to everyone last week and it is available on surfboard) before training.
I am also very excited to announce that we have a great speaker lined up for July 25. Ellen Danin is a professor of labor
law at Penn State University who has written extensively about our statute and the Board. She is a huge supporter of
employee rights and has written a book in which she, among other things, proposes arguments that Unions can use,
particularly in the Courts, to make the law more effective. The Book is called Taking Back the Workers Law and I
encourage you all to read it. I am attaching an article she wrote about the recent Boeing complaint, which you might want
to read before her visit. It is very short. She also writes for a number of labor blogs. If you google her, you will find them.
However, I will provide the links at some point. July 25 will be our training for July.
There will be no training in June, because we are going to be spending a huge amount of time NEX GEN training.

Plane Nonsense - Sorting out the Facts
in the Boeing Case

It is hard to think of an NLRB case that has been as misrepresented as the Boeing case.
Unfortunately, with the loss of beat reporters, especially reporters with deep knowledge of labor
issues, we have lost the voices of those who could provide light instead of adding to the heat.
The NLRB has tried to address this problem with its new Office of Public Affairs. Not only is
there now a front page link to information, but following that link will lead to clear reports on
significant cases, such as Boeing, with links within the case report to copies of significant
documents, such as the complaint.
So reporters could easily find information on this case, but few, it seems, take advantage of it.
Instead, we continue to see reporters churning out views instead of news. And rather than
helping the public understand the issues, we have news as a contact sport complete with
competitive cheerleading.
The result in the Boeing case is news stories filled with attack statements directed toward the
NLRB, NLRA, and Acting General Counsel Lafe Solomon. We read pro-con views rather than
facts that could be found easily by reading the NLRBs complaint and the Office of Public
Affairs memo.
Here, then are a few corrections of commonly reported ideas / claims / events.
First, this case is not about right to work states. Rather, this is a garden variety case of an
employers retaliating against its employees for striking when the parties were unable to come to
an agreement on terms and conditions of employment during bargaining. In the Boeing case, we
also have an employers making anti-union public statements over a number of years that it
would move the Dreamliner work to South Carolina because Boeing was unhappy about its
Oregon and Washington employees past strikes. The NLRB complaint sets out the dates and
statements it relies on.
NLRB-FOIA-00001104
The NLRB has decades of experience with cases of this sort, and the National Labor Relations
Act is clear that employer actions like Boeings violate the law. If this were a murder case, it
would be a case in which the police found a person saying : I did it, while standing over a
fresh corpse with smoking gun in hand.
Indeed, the only thing that is special about this case is that Boeing made so many public
statements threatening to take actions that violated the law. Indeed, the remarkable thing would
have been for the General Counsel not to issue a complaint on the evidence it had.
The law is clear about the rights and wrongs of this sort of case.
The NLRA says in section 13 that the right to strike is protected by law.
Section 7 declares that employees engaging in or refusing to engage in concerted activities,
such as giving one another mutual aid or support, is activity that is protected by law.
It is a violation of the NLRA to discourage employees from engaging in protected concerted
activity, which includes strikes, and to discriminate against employees in order to encourage or
discourage union membership.
Second, the complaint, which was issued after an investigation, charges that Boeings actions
were not only illegal but were so pervasive and serious that they were inherently destructive of
employees protected rights under the NLRA.
Third, despite the seriousness of the employers acts, the NLRB has not sought as a remedy that
Boeing cannot produce its products in South Carolina. This case is not about right to work states,
as some news stories have claimed. This is not a case about taking away work from South
Carolina workers.
Rather, this is a case that is about work that was illegally taken away to illegally retaliate against
workers for engaging in acts that are protected under law - striking. The remedy is that the work
that was transferred must be performed in Washington.
This does not mean that Boeing cannot do work in South Carolina or any state for that matter.
The complaint says that as long as Boeings decisions are not made for illegal motives, it can
have work done it South Carolina:
Other than as set forth in paragraph 13(a) abov e, the relief requested by the A cting General
Counsel does not seek to prohibit Respondent from making non-discriminatory decisions with
respect to where work will be perform ed, including non-discrim inatory decisions with respect to
w ork at its N orth Charleston, S outh Carolina, facility. T he com plaint also asks as a rem edy
that a B oeing official read aloud to the em ployees (or be present w hile B oard agent reads aloud)
a notice to em ployees of their rights under the NLRA and post that notice on Boeings intranet.
Second, news stories have generally fallen down on reporting on the process that led to the
issuance of the complaint and on the process that will later take place. The basics are that there
was an investigation after a charge was filed alleging that NLRA had been violated. The
charging party had to submit evidence to support that charge, and the NLRB investigators
NLRB-FOIA-00001105
assigned to the case took evidence from all parties. What is special in this case was that part of
the evidence could be found by checking the newspapers for Boeings threats.
Once the investigation was complete, the General Counsels office decides whether there was
reasonable case to believe the NLRA was violated. If reasonable cause exists, then the complaint
is issued, and efforts are made to settle the case.
If the case is not settled, then the case is scheduled for a hearing before an Administrative Law
Judge. All parties will have an opportunity to present witnesses and other evidence. Once the
trial is over, the ALJ will assess the evidence presented at trial and decide whether or not the law
has been violated. The ALJs decision can be to find that all, none, or some of the alleged
violations occurred. The parties can appeal the ALJs decision case to the Board.
Third, some have claimed that the NLRB acted wrongly in issuing the complaint against Boeing
because employers have a free-speech right. This is a common misperception, but it is not
correct.
Section 8(c) of the NLRA says: The expressing of any views, argument, or opinion, or the
dissemination thereof, whether in written, printed, graphic, or visual form, shall not constitute or
be evidence of an unfair labor practice under any of the provisions of this Act, if such expression
contains no threat of reprisal or force or promise of benefit.
In other words, section 8(c) says nothing about protecting free speech. All it does is create a safe
harbor for speech, as long as that speech does not threaten reprisals or force or promise benefits.
Boeings speech was not protected by 8(c) because it threatened reprisals against employees for
exercising their protected rights.

Issa's committee requested production of all documents and communications referring or relating to the Office
of General Counsel's investigation of Boeing, all documents and records of communications between anyone
in NLRB and IAM, and all documents referring or relating to the Office of General Counsel's investigation of
union election laws in Arizona, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Utah.
Issa's committee will apparently follow up after documents are produced by conducting a hearing on the Boeing
case. The Greenville News reported May 17 that Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), a member of the committee, said
Issa has agreed to conduct a June field hearing in South Carolina on the Boeing complaint.
According to the newspaper account, Gowdy expects to question NLRB officials at the hearing, and promised
to ask them: What were you thinking? Are you trying to intimidate South Carolina? Are you a shill for the
unions? Who put you up to this?
An NLRB spokesperson told BNA May 17 the agency had not been advised of a Government Operations
Committee hearing or asked to participate.

THE PRESIDING OFFICER: THE SENATOR FROM CONNECTICUT.
{14:49:11 NSP} (MR. BLUMENTHAL) { NOT AN OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT }
MR. BLUMENTHAL: THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. MR. PRESIDENT, I RISE
TODAY TO VOICE MY CONCERNS ABOUT A GREAT DEAL OF THE
CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING A COMPLAINT ISSUED UNDER THE NATIONAL
LABOR RELATIONS ACT AGAINST THE BOEING COMPANY. BOEING RECENTLY
DECIDED TO OPEN A NEW PLANT IN SOUTH CAROLINA. THE NATIONAL
LABOR RELATIONS BOARD'S ACTING GENERAL COUNSEL, LIEF SOLOMON,
ISSUED A COMPLIANCE BECAUSE OF EVIDENCE THIS DECISION WAS MADE
IN RETALIATION FOR RECENT STRIKES AT THE BOEING PLANT IN THE
{14:49:41} (MR. BLUMENTHAL) { NOT AN OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT }
PUGET SOUPED AREA. SOUPED -- PUGET SOUND AREA. NOW, I HOPE THAT
THERE IS NO DISPUTE ABOUT A COUPLE OF POINTS. FIRST, BOEING IS
A HIGHLY REPUTABLE COMPANY THAT PRODUCES GREAT PRODUCTS VALUED
AROUND THE WORLD AND GREAT JOBS. NOT JUST JOBS BUT GOOD JOBS.
AND THERE SHOULD BE NO DOUBT ALSO ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF
PUBLIC DEBATE, ROBUST CRITICISM OF GOVERNMENT AGENCIES,
INCLUDING THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD WHEN IT MAKES
DECISIONS THAT SPARK DISAGREEMENT. AND I HAVE THE GREATEST OF
RESPECT FOR MY COLLEAGUES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE WHO MAY
HAVE BEEN CRITICAL OF NLRB DECISIONS IN THE PAST AND OF THIS
ACTION IN THE PRESENT. AND THERE SHOULD BE NO DOUBT ALSO ABOUT
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INTEGRITY OF THE NLRB PROCESS WHICH
BEGINS WITH A COMPLAINT, WHICH IS ALL WE HAVE HERE, AGAINST
BOEING AND THEN HAS A PROCEDURE FOR CONSIDERATION BY
ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGE OF THE FACTS AND THE LAW, THEN TO THE
FULL BOARD OF THE NLRB AND A RIGHT OF APPEAL TO THE COURT OF
APPEALS FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT. HERE IN THIS

1
NLRB-FOIA-00001130
INSTANCE THERE HAVE BEEN A SERIES OF ATTACKS ON THE COMPLAINT
AND THE ACTING GENERAL COUNSEL THAT INVOLVE APPARENT EFFORTS TO
IMPEDE OR DERAIL THAT PROCESS AND TO PREJUDGE AND EVENT PREEMPT
THAT PROCESS. THE EFFECT IS SO POLITICIZE AND POTENTIALLY STOP
WHAT SHOULD BE A LEGAL PROCEEDING HANDLED UNDER THE APPROPRIATE
RULES AND LAWS AND STATUTES BY AN INDEPENDENT GOVERNMENT
AGENCY. THIS ISSUE IS ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF THE PROCESS. AT
THIS POINT, THERE IS ONLY A COMPLAINT AGAINST BOEING. THIS
COMPLAINT WAS ISSUED ON THE BASIS OF STATEMENTS AND DOCUMENTS
AND ACTIONS BY THE COMPANY ITSELF. THERE IS CERTAINLY EVIDENCE,
INCLUDING AT LEAST ONE BOEING EXECUTIVE'S STATEMENTS, THAT THE
COMPANY MAY HAVE RETALIATED AGAINST WORKERS. THE NLRB AND THE
ACTING COUNSEL HAVE NOT ONLY THE RIGHT BUT THE RESPONSIBILITY
TO INVESTIGATE AND ACT WHERE THE FACTS AND THE LAW ESTABLISH, A
RIGHT, AN OBLIGATION TO DO SO. SO NO ONE SHOULD BE TRYING TO
PREJUDGE THIS CASE BEFORE IT GOES TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE
AND NO ONE SHOULD BE SEEKING A PASS FROM THE APPROPRIATE
PROCESS AND NO ONE SHOULD BE SEEKING TO INTIMIDATE OR TO
INTERFERE WITH THIS LAWFUL PROCEEDING. I COME TO THE FLOOR
TODAY BECAUSE OF THE PROSPECT OF EXACTLY THAT DANGER OCCURRING
HERE. ON MAY 12, CHAIRMAN DARRELL ISSA, REPRESENTING THE
CHAIRMAN ON GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT AND REFORM, SENT A LETTER TO
THE ACTING GENERAL COWNS HE FEEL THE THE -- COUNSEL OF THE
NLRB, REQUESTING THAT HE PRODUCE ALL RELATED DOCUMENTS
PERTAINING TO THIS CASE. INDEED, THE LETTER HAS A NUMBER OF
PARAGRAPHS THAT ARE SWEEPING IN THEIR SCOPE, REQUESTING, FOR
EXAMPLE, DEMANDING THAT ALL DOCUMENTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
REFERRING OR RELATING TO THE OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL'S
INVESTIGATION OF BOEING, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ALL
COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN THE OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL AND THE
NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD. THE HOUSE COMMITTEE, WITH ALL
DUE RESPECT, IS NOT A COURT, IT IS NOT THE ADMINISTRATIVE
JUDGE, IT IS NOT A PROPER PARTY TO BE DEMANDING THESE DOCUMENTS
IN THE COURSE OF A LAWFUL JUDICIAL PROCEEDING. AND THE
CHAIRMAN'S ATTEMPT TO INSERT THE COMMITTEE INTO THIS CASE BY
CONDUCTING ITS OWN ROUND OF DISCOVERY AT THIS POINT WOULD
INTERFERE WITH THE NLRB'S ABILITY TO PREPARE AND PRESENT ITS
CASE BEFORE A REAL JUDICIAL OFFICER. THESE ACTIONS AND SOME
OTHERS ARE AN ATTACK ON THE INTEGRITY OF THE NLRB, AN ATTACK ON
ITS ABILITY TO MAKE DECISIONS AND ENFORCE THE LAW AS THE UNITED
STATES CONGRESS HAS INSTRUCTED IT AND REQUIRED IT TO DO BASED

2
NLRB-FOIA-00001131
ON DECISIONS INVOLVING THE FACTS AND THE LAW ALONE. THE NLRB IS
PART OF OUR NUTRITIONAL SYSTEM, PART OF OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM, AND
IT SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO JUSTICE IN THIS
INSTANCE. IT SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROTECT
FAIRNESS AND PEACE AT THE WORKPLACE WHICH IS ULTIMATELY ITS
MANDATE AND ITS VERY SOLEMN RESPONSIBILITY, ITS TRADITION AND
ITS MANDATE FROM THE CONGRESS IS SO PROTECT JOBS AND TO FOSTER
ECONOMIC GROWTH BY MAINTAINING PEACE AND FAIRNESS AT THE
WORKPLACE. AND THESE PRIORITIES SHOULD BE SHARED BY ALL OF THE
COUNTRY. I CERTAINLY BELIEVE AND HOPE THAT THE PEOPLE OF
CONNECTICUT WANT FAIRNESS AND PEACE IN THE WORKPLACE, AS WE DO
IN OUR WORKPLACES. THE NLRB, VERY SIMPLY, SHOULD BE GIVEN THAT
OPPORTUNITY TO DO JUSTICE HERE WITHOUT IMPROPER OR
INAPPROPRIATE INTERFERENCE BY MEMBERS OF THE UNITED STATES
CONGRESS OR ANYONE ELSE, AND MY HOPE IS THAT IT WILL BE
VINDICATED AND THAT THE ATTACKS WILL CEASE AND THAT IT WILL BE
GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO FORWARD LAWFULLY AND APPROPRIATELY
AND PROPERLY. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. AND I SUGGEST THE
ABSENCE OF A QUORUM.

DLR
House Education and the Workforce Committee Chairman John Kline (R-Minn.) and Phil Roe (R-Tenn.),
chairman of the panel's Health, Employment, Labor, and Pensions Subcommittee, May 24 said they were
disappointed that the National Labor Relations Board's acting general counsel has resisted their request for
internal documents concerning a highly publicized unfair labor practice complaint against Boeing Co.
Writing to the chairmen May 19 on behalf of Acting General Counsel Lafe E. Solomon, Celeste J. Mattina, the
NLRB's acting deputy general counsel, provided a two-page chronology of the agency's consideration of the
case.
But she told Kline and Roe that their extensive May 5 request for internal documents and research was the
first this Agency has ever received from a Committee of the House of Representatives with jurisdiction over the
Agency seeking documents within litigation files of an open enforcement action.
Writing that prematurely disclosing the acting general counsel's strategic plans could compromise the Boeing
litigation and result in an unfair advantage to one litigant over another, NLRB failed to produce the
documents Kline and Roe requested. However, the agency offered to meet with the chairmen to discuss further
information needs that you may have.
In the May 24 statement, Kline said that NLRB is not exempt from congressional oversight or public scrutiny.
But he added the general counsel's office has offered to discuss our request further, and we intend to take them
up on their offer.
Document Dispute Relates to Boeing Litigation
According to the NLRB complaint and a fact sheetissued by the acting general counsel, the International
Association of Machinists has represented Boeing production and maintenance employees in the Puget Sound
area of Washington, and in Portland, Ore., in two bargaining units that have been covered by a series of
collective bargaining agreements with the union
The company, which has a backlog of orders for its new 787 Dreamliner, announced in October 2009 that it
would build a second assembly line in North Charleston, S.C., rather than in the Puget Sound area (207 DLR A-
7, 10/29/09). The company said it planned to produce three Dreamliners per month in South Carolina in
addition to seven per month at the Puget Sound facility.
IAM filed an unfair labor practice charge over the Boeing announcement, and on April 20, NLRB's Seattle
regional director, Richard Ahearn, issued a complaint, authorized by Solomon, that alleges that the company's
actions violated National Labor Relations Act Section 8(a)(1), which prohibits an employer from interfering
with, restraining, or coercing employees in their exercise of rights under the federal labor law, and Section
8(a)(3), which makes it an unfair labor practice for an employer by discrimination in regard to hire or tenure of
employment or any term or condition of employment to encourage or discourage membership in any labor
organization.
The case, which has provoked public criticism and calls for legislative action (95 DLR C-1, 5/17/11) is
scheduled for a hearing before an administrative law judge in Seattle beginning on June 14.
Chairmen Requested NLRB Explanation, Documents
In their May 5 letter to Solomon, Kline and Roe acknowledged that the facts of case against Boeing are still in
dispute, but they expressed concern that the case could have significant consequences for job-creators and
workers.
Kline and Roe observed that the NLRB complaint references alleged statements made by Boeing officials
between October 2009 and March 2010 that work stoppages were one reason for choosing the new location.
1
NLRB-FOIA-00001141
But they observed that in June 2010, Ahearn was quoted by the Seattle Times as saying it would have been an
easier case for the union to argue if Boeing had moved existing work from Everett[, Wash.], rather than placing
new work in Charleston.
The chairmen said that 10 months after the newspaper interview, Ahearn signed the unfair labor practice
complaint against Boeing, which Solomon has said he authorized. Kline and Roe said [t]he pivot in position by
NLRB officials, as well as the unusual timing, raises serious concerns that warrant congressional inquiry.
They asked Solomon to provide by May 19 a description of what transpired between June 2010 and April 2011
that led the NLRB to alter its opinion in this matter, as well as all documents and communications between the
NLRB regional and national offices concerning the case. The House panel also asked for all documentation that
supports the NLRB view that work is being transferred' in this case, as well as [p]ast precedent that supports
a finding that Boeing violated sections 8(a)(3) and 8(a)(1) of the NLRA when it decided to locate, not transfer, a
second assembly line.
NLRB Official Explains Remarks, Chronology
Mattina responded at length in her May 19 letter concerning Ahearn's remarks and the chairmen's inquiry about
the timing of the eventual complaint against Boeing.
According to the NLRB letter, the charge filed by IAM District Lodge 751 in Seattle on March 26, 2010, was
investigated by the NLRB regional office until Aug. 31, 2010, when Ahearn submitted the case to NLRB's
Division of Advice in Washington, D.C. Such a submission was consistent with the agency's established
practice in cases of national significance, Mattina wrote.
Solomon recognized the significance of the case to the company and the union, Mattina said, and the acting
general counsel issued an Oct. 19, 2010, invitation for Boeing to make an oral presentation of its case in
Solomon's Washington, D.C., office. Boeing made its presentation on Dec. 15, 2010, and the union made an
oral presentation on Jan. 19, followed by a written statement of position.
According to NLRB, Solomon encouraged the company and the union to settle the dispute, and Ahearn signed
and issued the complaint on behalf of the acting general counsel on April 20 only after settlement efforts failed.
Mattina wrote that discrimination cases under Section 8(a)(3) of the NLRA involve shifting burdens and require
a careful and balanced assessment of whether protected conduct of employees was a motivating factor in the
employer's decision and whether the employer can affirmatively introduce evidence to demonstrate that the
challenged action would have taken place regardless of the employees' protected activity.
Ahearn's remarks merely reflect an appropriate appreciation of the delicate balancing and careful scrutiny of
often conflicting evidence, Mattina said. She added that while Ahearn had predicted in June 2010 that an
initial ruling in the case was weeks away, the delay in issuance of a complaint until April 2011 was the
result of Solomon's giving the parties additional time to argue their positions and to explore possible settlement
before advancing the case by issuing a complaint.
Official Describes Objections to Document Disclosure
Addressing the chairmen's request for internal documents reflecting NLRB discussions and consideration of the
case, and supporting documents and research, Mattina described several concerns.
Stating that NLRB litigation files typically contain affidavits taken from witnesses who have been promised
confidentiality, Mattina also said the files contain the privileged work product of our attorneys and road maps'
of our litigation plans and preparations.
In NLRB v. Robbins Tire & Rubber Co., 437 U.S. 214, 98 LRRM 2617 (1978), the U.S. Supreme Court
upheld NLRB's policy of withholding witness affidavits in open cases from disclosures made under the
Freedom of Information Act, and Mattina said the high court recognized the importance of protecting the
NLRB's assurances of confidentiality.
The House chairmen also asked Solomon to produce all documents and communications that support the
NLRB's position that work is being transferred' in this case, as well as past precedent that would support a
finding Boeing violated the NLRA.
Mattina said that we are not in a position to address the issues to be litigated in the public hearing outside
the context of that hearing. Stating that the information Kline and Roe requested goes to the crux of those
issues, Mattina said that the acting general counsel has already disclosed the basic facts and legal theory in
the complaint against Boeing as well as in press releases and a fact sheet posted on NLRB's website.
2
NLRB-FOIA-00001142
Once the hearing commences, Mattina said, NLRB could provide the House committee with copies of the
transcript and exhibits and post-hearing briefs of the parties.
Mattina concluded that NLRB representatives would be pleased to meet with Kline and Roe to discuss how
we might accommodate further information needs that you may have, consistent with our need to protect the
integrity of our legal processes.
Kline, Roe Call Response Insufficient.'
In the joint statement by the committee leaders, Kline said, While this insufficient response is not entirely
unexpected from today's board, it is still extremely disappointing. Stating that there are legitimate questions
over public statements made by NLRB officials and the timing of its complaint, the House committee
chairman said that [t]he American people deserve a full explanation and Congress has a right to a complete
response.
Roe said that NLRB's troubling allegations against Boeing warrant further investigation, and said that the
extreme remedy sought by the acting general counsel will have a detrimental effect on local economies and a
chilling effect on the American workforce. Stating that he is very concerned about NLRB action in the
Boeing case, Roe said he will be exploring these allegations further.
Kline charged that [f]or more than two years, the Obama board has pursued an activist agenda that champions
the interests of Big Labor over the interests of all American workers.
Republicans have pledged to make job creation a leading priority, Kline said, and our oversight of the NLRB
will remain an important part of that effort.

Accusing IAM Unit of Pay-to-Play' Spending, DeMint Seeks NLRB Release of Boeing
Files
Posted June 7, 2011, 5:10 P.M. ET
Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) requested June 6 that the National Labor Relations Board's acting
general counsel release copies of internal agency documents and records concerning a highly
publicized unfair labor practice complaint against Boeing Co., stating the documents are
needed to determine whether possible input from politically connected special interests
influenced the issuance of the NLRB complaint.
NLRB Acting General Counsel Lafe E. Solomon authorized the April 20 complaint, which
alleges that Boeing unlawfully established a second assembly line for its 787 Dreamliner
aircraft at a nonunion plant in South Carolina in order to retaliate against workers in
Washington state represented by the International Association of Machinists District Lodge
751 who had supported lawful economic strikes against Boeing during earlier contract
disputes. An NLRB administrative law judge will conduct a hearing on the complaint
beginning June 14 in Seattle.
But DeMint cited a statement in a district lodge newsletter as evidence that the Seattle-
based union would appear to be openly engaged in a pay-to-play system of political
influence, and he submitted a Freedom of Information Act request for agency documents he
said are needed to assure the public of the purity of the NLRB's intentions and the propriety
of its actions.
In his letter addressed to Solomon and an agency FOIA officer, DeMint quoted an April 2011
newsletter published by District Lodge 751 that urged union members to contribute to the
Machinists Non-Partisan Political League, telling them that MNPL money gains your Union
access to officials, which is critical to get out issues addressed and ensure our input is
heard.
According to the IAM's website, MNPL is the political arm of the union, and was established
in 1947 to allow IAM members to gather individual contributions, coordinate political
activity, and elect candidates who support IAM members and their families.
NLRB spokeswoman Nancy Cleeland said June 7 that Sen. DeMint's request will be reviewed
NLRB-FOIA-00001149
by the FOIA officer.
District Lodge 751 did not respond to a request for comment on DeMint's letter.

E-Mail That Didn't Give Final Notice of Firing Did Not Trigger SOX Filing Period, ARB
Rules
An administrative law judge erred when she dismissed as untimely filed the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act whistleblower complaint of a credit card company investigations director who alleged she
was fired in retaliation for complaining about supervisor misconduct, the Labor Department's
Administrative Review Board ruled May 31 (Avlon v. Am. Express Co., DOL ARB, No. 09-089,
5/31/11 [released 6/6/11]).
Reversing and remanding the ALJ, the board found that SOX's 90-day statute of limitations
was not triggered by a September 2007 e-mail sent by American Express Co. (AMEX) to
Christine Avlon, who had taken paid administrative leave while her complaints were being
investigated. That e-mail, which offered Avlon the possibility of continued employment with
the company, did not constitute a final, definitive, and unequivocal notice of termination in
order for the limitations period to begin, ARB said.
Instead, the board said, a December 2007, AMEX e-mail, in which the company made clear
that the possibility of Avlons retaining her employment was no longer an option if she
refused to return to her former position, triggered SOX's statute of limitations. Given that
Avlon filed her SOX complaint with the Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health
Administration on March 2, 2008a date that fell within 90 days of the December e-mail
her complaint was timely filed, ARB held.
The board directed the ALJ on remand to determine whether Avlon engaged in protected
activity and whether that activity contributed to her termination. When conducting her
analysis, the board said, the ALJ may consider allegations in Avlon's complaint that are
related to her retaliatory discharge claim, including her contention that AMEX refused her
transfer request to avoid working for the supervisor she accused of misconduct, even if those
allegations cannot stand as independent adverse actions because they are discrete acts
that occurred beyond the 90-day limitations period.
Administrative Appeals Judges Lisa Wilson Edwards, Paul M. Igasaki, and Luis A. Corchado
joined in the opinion.

Projected Hiring Levels Up Over Year Ago, BNA's Employment Outlook Finds
Employer hiring projections are up over levels recorded one year ago and well above levels
observed in 2009, according to projections from 215 employers responding to BNA's
quarterly employment survey for the third quarter of 2011.
NLRB-FOIA-00001150
The survey found, however, that there has been little change in employment prospects for
production and service or technical and professional employees in 2011. Over the first three
quarters of this year, employer hiring intentions have fluctuated in a seemingly random
fashion for these two groups while declining for office and clerical staff.
Anticipated hires for production and service staff has not followed any discernible pattern
thus far. The 26 percent of surveyed employers that anticipated adding production and
service positions in the first quarter of 2011 fell to 22 percent in the second quarter and then
rose to 26 percent for the third quarter of this year.
There also is little discernible direction in hiring trends this year for technical and professional
staff. Anticipated hires increased slightly from 31 percent of employers in January through
March to 33 percent in April through June, then declined 1 percentage point to 32 percent for
July through September of this year.

Firing of Replacement Workers Was Not Mass Layoff' Under WARN Act, Eighth
Circuit Says
Temporary workers hired by Kohler Co. to replace union workers on strike and then fired
once the labor dispute settled cannot proceed with a claim that the company failed to provide
them with adequate termination notice under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining
Notification (WARN) Act because their discharges did not constitute a mass layoff within
the statute's meaning, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit ruled today (Sanders
v. Kohler Co., 8th Cir., No. 10-1848, 6/8/11).
Affirming summary judgment to Kohler, the appellate court found no triable issue of fact that
the company was required to provide 60 days' notice because there was no reduction in
force (RIF) that resulted in an employment loss for at least 50 employees, as provided in
the WARN Act at 29 U.S.C. 2101(a)(3).
Agreeing with Sixth Circuit precedent, the Eighth Circuit said fired employees who are
replaced cannot be considered as part of a RIF and thus cannot count as part of the
aggregate number of employee layoffs that must be met to satisfy the numerosity
thresholds of the WARN Act. Here, the court said, the 123 fired replacement workers were
themselves replaced by 103 original striking employees who were reinstated under a labor
settlement agreement, resulting in a RIF of only 20 employees, which did not trigger the
WARN Act's notice requirement.
Judge Roger L. Wollman wrote the opinion, joined by Judges James B. Loken and Lavenski R.
Smith.

Obama Steps Up Defense of Spending on Worker Training, Education

training and education programs, despite his deficit-hawk critics who are calling loudly for
massive cuts in federal spending.
Obama, speaking at the Northern Virginia Community College in Alexandria, Va., said if a
program does not work in training people for the jobs of the future, it should be eliminated.
If the program is working, we should put more money into that program, he said.
The government must be ruthless in evaluating what works and what does not, so that
people can get jobs and industry can get the workers it needs, Obama said.
That's how we're going to help more Americans climb into the middle-class and stay there.
That's how we're going to make our overall economy stronger and more competitive, the
president said.
It is possible to choose not to do this and not make investments in clean energy, let tuition
prices rise, and force more Americans to give up on their dreams, Obama said. It is possible
to concede that with foreign competition and low wages overseas, U.S. manufacturing is out
the door and there is nothing that can be done about it, he said.
We could decide in solving our fiscal problems that we can't afford to make any of these
investments, and those of us who've done very well don't have to pay any more taxes in
order to fund these investments, he said.
But I want to make clear that's not our history, that's not who we are. I don't accept that
future for the United States of America, Obama said.
Instead, the president said he envisions a country that out-competes every other nation, is
the engine of innovation and discovery, and where workers are trained to manufacture in the
United States.

House Oversight Committee May Try to Force Solomon to Attend South Carolina
Hearing on Boeing
The chairman of a House oversight committee, which has scheduled a June 17 field hearing
in North Charleston, S.C., to investigate a highly publicized unfair labor practice complaint
filed by the National Labor Relations Board against Boeing Co., has hinted the committee
may attempt to compel NLRBs acting general counsel to attend the hearing if he continues
to refuse to do so.
In a June 7 letter to NLRB Acting General Counsel Lafe E. Solomon, Rep. Darrell Issa (R-
Calif.), chairman of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, asked the NLRB
official to reconsider his June 3 refusal to appear at the hearing so that the committee will
not have to consider the use of the compulsory process. Issa gave Solomon until 10:00
a.m. June 10 to respond.
The congressional hearing titled, Unionization Through Regulation: The NLRB's Holding
Pattern on Free Enterprise, is being held to gather information regarding the impact of the
complaint, authorized by Solomon, on workers in South Carolina. The complaint alleges that
Boeing unlawfully established a second assembly line for the 787 Dreamliner aircraft at a
nonunion plant in South Carolina in order to retaliate against workers in Washington state
represented by the International Association of Machinists District Lodge 751. The workers

In a related development, Solomon June 7 opposed a motion filed earlier this month by three

before an NLRB administrative law judge beginning June 14 in Seattle, Wash.

Court Says Poultry Workers' Time Dealing With Safety Gear Compensable Under
FLSA
The time spent by a chicken processing company's employees donning and doffing protective
gear at the beginning and end of their work shifts is compensable as work under the Fair
Labor Standards Act, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit decided June 7 (Perez
v. Mountaire Farms Inc., 4th Cir., No. 09-1917, 6/7/11).
Affirming the U.S. District Court for the District of Marylands ruling in favor of Luisa Perez
and other Mountaire Farms employees in the FLSA collective action, Judge Barbara M.
Keenan wrote for the appeals court that such pre- and post-shift donning and doffing
activities are integral and indispensable to the employees' principal work activities.
But the Fourth Circuit vacated the district court's holding that the Mountaire employees' mid-
shift handling of protective gear at their meal break is compensable under FLSA, citing the
binding nature of one of the appeals court's past decisions, which held that such activities
were part of the bona fide meal period. Additionally, the appeals court affirmed the district
court's application of a two-year statute of limitations and denial of the employees' liquidated
damages request.

BNA on Issa Hearing
The chairman of a House oversight committee, which has scheduled a June 17 field hearing in North
Charleston, S.C., to investigate a highly publicized unfair labor practice complaint filed by the National Labor
Relations Board against Boeing Co., has hinted the committee may attempt to compel NLRB's acting general
counsel to attend the hearing if he continues to refuse to do so.
In a June 7 letter to NLRB Acting General Counsel Lafe E. Solomon, Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), chairman of
the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, asked the NLRB official to reconsider his June 3 refusal
to appear at the hearing so that the committee will not have to consider the use of the compulsory process.
Issa gave Solomon until 10:00 a.m. June 10 to respond.
In a related development, Solomon June 7 opposed a motion filed earlier this month by three South Carolina
Boeing employees to intervene in the ULP complaint case, which will be heard before an NLRB administrative
law judge beginning June 14 in Seattle, Wash.
The congressional hearing titled, Unionization Through Regulation: The NLRB's Holding Pattern on Free
Enterprise, is being held to gather information regarding the impact of the complaint, authorized by Solomon,
on workers in South Carolina. The complaint alleges that Boeing unlawfully established a second assembly line
for the 787 Dreamliner aircraft at a nonunion plant in South Carolina in order to retaliate against workers in
Washington state represented by the International Association of Machinists District Lodge 751. The workers
had supported lawful economic strikes against Boeing during earlier contract disputes.
Solomon Asked to Provide Testimony on Impact
In a May 26 letter, Issa asked Solomon to attend the congressional hearing to provide testimony about how
NLRB's actions against Boeing could impact the thousands of Boeing employees at a nonunion worksite in
South Carolina.
Solomon replied June 3 that he would not attend, stating that his appearance before the committee could
threaten the rights of the parties to a fair trial. He said the trial before the ALJ in Seattle will almost certainly
be in progress when your Committee gathers in South Carolina. Solomon added that as the acting general
counsel he is responsible for overseeing the litigation and making all strategic decisions related to the
prosecution of the case.
Boeing and IAM must be afforded due process protections and a right to a fair trial at all stages of this
proceeding, Solomon said. Premature disclosure of information and arguments could have a negative impact
on the rights of the litigating parties, breach assurances of confidentiality, and generally unduly interfere with an
enforcement action, he wrote.
But, in a June 7 letter, Issa dismissed Solomon's arguments, stating that the hearing does not concern his
decision-making process or legal strategy, but the impact on the thousands of Boeing workers in South
Carolina. You assert that you do not seek to close Boeing's operations in South Carolina; yet, the relief
requested would have that exact effect, Issa said.
Issa added that as acknowledged by the U.S. Supreme Court, Congress's power to investigate is extremely
broad, and the rights of the parties can be preserved without having any adverse effect upon the legitimate
exercise of the investigative power of Congress.
Solomon Opposes Motion of Three Employees
Meanwhile, Solomon June 7 urged the administrative law judge who is scheduled to try the case to oppose a
motion filed earlier this month by three South Carolina Boeing employees to intervene (106 DLR A-10, 6/2/11).
NLRB-FOIA-00001166
In his opposition, Solomon contended that the three employees interests are already adequately represented by
the parties, and the employees have no cognizable interest in participating in this proceeding sufficient to
justify their intervention. The acting general counsel contended that the unnecessary participation of the
three employees would merely delay and complicate these already complex proceedings.
Solomon said, however, that he would not object to giving the three employees amicus status for the sole
purpose of filing post-hearing briefs on their own behalf.
The three employees filed the motion to intervene June 1, contending that the complaint threatens their
employment.
Noting that the acting general counsel seeks an order requiring Boeing to have IAM-represented employees in
Washington operate a second assembly line, the South Carolina employees, who are represented by the National
Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, argued in the motion that they have a right to be heard in opposition
to the draconian remedy sought by the General Counsel, since they will surely be terminated if the General
Counsel's position is sustained.
The South Carolina Boeing workersDennis Murray, Cynthia Ramaker, and Meredith Goingfiled the
motion with NLRB's Seattle regional director, asking that he grant the motion or refer it to an administrative
law judge for ruling at or before the start of the June 14 hearing on the unfair labor practice allegations.
In response to Solomon's opposition, Mark Mix, president of the National Right to Work Legal Defense
Foundation, said in a June 8 statement that the acting general counsel's argument that the workers have no
stake in the shutdown of the facility in which they are employed is a disingenuous attempt to silence workers
whose very livelihoods are in jeopardy. Essentially, what Solomon and IAM union officials want is for
workers to sit down and shut up, even though their jobs are on the line and their rights are at issue.

Solomon Agrees to Attend House Field Hearing, If Issa Does Not Accept Alternative
Option
Under the threat of a possible subpoena, Lafe Solomon, acting general counsel of the
National Labor Relations Board, today informed the chairman of a congressional oversight
committee that he would attend a field hearing next week in South Carolina involving an
NLRB complaint against Boeing Co., if the committee does not agree to an alternative option
he has proposed.
In his letter to Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), chairman of the House Committee on Oversight
and Government Reform, Solomon said he has offered to provide written testimony and send
Richard Siegel, NLRBs associate general counsel of the Division of Operations-Management,
to the South Carolina hearing to provide testimony on the boards policies and procedures.
But, he said, as of the evening of June 9 the committee had not accepted his proposal.
Solomon urged Issa to reconsider the alternative, contending that the approach best
accommodates the Committees desire to exercise its legitimate oversight without
compromising the integrity and independence of the NLRBs enforcement process. The
acting general counsel said, however, that if Issa insists on Solomon's appearing personally,
he will do so. Solomon added that he cannot and will not compromise the very legitimate
interests that I have articulated in all of my communications to you.
Earlier this month, Solomon declined an invitation from Issa to appear at the June 17
hearing, which has been called to examine the impact of the Boeing complaint on workers in
South Carolina. The complaint, authorized by Solomon, alleges that Boeing unlawfully
established a second assembly line for the 787 Dreamliner aircraft at a nonunion plant in
South Carolina in order to retaliate against workers in Washington state represented by the
International Association of Machinists, who supported lawful economic strikes against
Boeing.
Issa urged Solomon to reconsider so that the committee would not have to compel him to
attend.
In response to that threat, Solomon told Issa that a hearing before an NLRB administrative
NLRB-FOIA-00001173
law judge is scheduled to begin June 14 in Seattle, and both Boeing and IAM must be
afforded due process and given the right to a fair trial. Solomon said that he was concerned
about the potential impact that certain areas of inquiry may have on the due process rights
of the litigants if he is forced to testify. Noting that he is ultimately responsible for
overseeing the litigation, Solomon said it would be more appropriate for Siegel, who is not a
decisionmaker in the case, to appear before the committee.

NLRB Lacked Any Basis to Find Hospital Liable, D.C. Circuit Rules
A Kentucky hospital did not violate the National Labor Relations Act when it placed a nurse
who was active in the local union on investigatory suspension because she refused to
participate in a disciplinary meeting with supervisors without a union representative present,
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled today (Jackson Hosp.
Corp. v. NLRB, D.C. Cir., No. 10-1271, 6/10/11).
Reversing a National Labor Relations Board ruling that Jackson Hospital Corp. committed an
unfair labor practice by suspending nurse Frances Lynn Combs in January 2007, the D.C.
Circuit said although it was undisputed the employer was aware of Combs's union activity, no
evidence supports NLRB's conclusion that anti-union animus motivated the supervisors who
suspended Combs.
Combs had refused to participate in a meeting at which the supervisors planned to give her a
verbal warning for her alleged failure to follow protocol on dispensing medication to patients.
Under the U.S. Supreme Court decision in NLRB v. J. Weingarten Inc., 420 U.S. 251, 88
LRRM 2689 (1975), the National Labor Relations Act guarantees an employee's right to have
a union representative present during an investigatory interview in which the risk of
discipline reasonably inheres.
The parties in Combs's case, however, did not dispute that although Combs asked for union
representation, she had no Weingarten right because the supervisors had already decided on
a verbal warning and the meeting was solely intended to deliver that warning to Combs.
Relevant NLRB decisions hold that Weingarten does not apply if an employer has reached a
final, binding decision to impose certain discipline on an employee prior to the meeting, the
court said.
NLRB nevertheless found Jackson Hospital committed an unfair labor practice based on a
theory that the managers had set up Combs by provoking her into insisting on a
Weingarten right that she did not in fact have and then suspending her indefinitely for
refusal to participate in the meeting.
Overturning NLRB's ruling, the D.C. Circuit said the board's theory is mere speculation
without a jot of evidentiary support in the record. Although the managers could have
foreseen that Combs would likely attend the meeting accompanied by another employee
and it was undisputed they suspended Combs for refusing to continue the meeting unless
she was afforded the non-existent Weingarten right, the court said there is no evidentiary
link to causally connect the two events.

NLRB-FOIA-00001174
Eleventh Circuit Finds Company's Fraud Challenge to Union Award Time-Barred
Under LMRA
A federal district court did not err in ruling that an aluminum producer in Alabama was
barred from raising a fraud defense to an action brought by three unions to enforce an
arbitration award in their favor because the company failed to file a motion to vacate within
three months of the award's entry under Section 301 of the Labor-Management Relations
Act, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit ruled June 9 (United Steelworkers v.
Wise Alloys LLC, 11th Cir., No. 10-11961, 6/9/11).
In affirming summary judgment to the United Steelworkers, the International Union of
Operating Engineers, and the Carpenters and Joiners of America to enforce the arbitrator's
awardwhich adopted the unions' interpretation on how to calculate adjustments to a cost-
of living allowance for offsetting increases in employee health insurance premiums provided
in their collective bargaining agreementsthe Eleventh Circuit noted that LMRA Section 301
does not provide a limitations period for the filing of motions to vacate. As such, the
appellate court adopted the Federal Arbitration Act's three-month filing period for arbitration
award challenges and applied it to the LMRA.
In the instant case, the court said, Wise Alloys LLC never filed a motion to vacate after the
arbitrator ruled in favor of the unions on Nov. 21, 2008. Instead, the company first raised a
fraud defense in its April 30, 2009, answer to the unions' lawsuit seeking enforcement of the
arbitration award. Given that Wise failed to judicially challenge the arbitrator's award within
three months of Nov. 21, 2008, its fraud defense was time-barred, the court found.
Judge Emmett Ripley Cox wrote the opinion, joined by Judges Ed Carnes and William H.
Pryor.

Court Grants Review of MSHA Order Limiting Actions of Massey Subsidiary at UBB
Mine
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit today granted Performance Coal
Co.'s petition for review of restrictions placed by the Labor Department's Mine Safety and
Health Administration on its activities at the Upper Big Branch mine (Performance Coal Co. v.
Federal Mine Safety & Health Review Comm'n, D.C. Cir., No. 10-1280, 6/10/11).
Performance Coal Co., a subsidiary of Massey Energy Co., operates the Upper Big Branch
mine in Whitesville, W.Va., where 29 miners died in an explosion on April 5, 2010 (69 DLR A-
14, 4/13/10).
Following the explosion, MSHA imposed an order under Section 103(k) of the Mine Safety
and Health Act restricting Performance Coal from taking photographs, collecting and
preserving mine dust samples, and using mine mapping technology. Performance Coal
objected, arguing that it was being deprived of the opportunity to gather potentially
exculpatory evidence to defend itself against potential charges that it violated safety and
health standards.
Performance Coal petitioned the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission for
3
NLRB-FOIA-00001175
temporary relief from MSHA's order, which the commission denied. Setting aside the order,
the court said the commission's interpretation of Section 105(b)(2) is simply untenable.
Writing for the court, Judge David B. Sentelle said, As we read Section 105 [of the Mine
Safety and Health Act] Performance Coal is entitled to seek temporary relief from a
modification or termination of any order, including a Section 103 order.

NMB Creates Expedited Mediation Program to Speed Bargaining Agreements
The National Mediation Board has established an expedited mediation project for resolving
collective bargaining disputes in the airline and railroad industries, the agency announced
today.
Larry Gibbons, NMB director for mediation, said the board created the voluntary program in
response to recommendations issued last year by a special labor-management advisory
committee to help shorten what many parties perceive as an inordinately long process for
resolving contentious contract negotiations (82 DLR A-12, 4/30/10).
The goal of the program is to provide an expedited process for cases in which a concerted
push in mediation likely would lead to an agreement. For a case to be accepted for
expeditious handling, the parties must jointly apply for mediation and request consideration
for expedited mediation at the time of application, the board said. If a case is accepted,
NMB will assist the parties in negotiating a protocol agreement, which will establish
expectations and guide the expedited mediation process.

Subject: Senator Blumenthal on floor today
THE PRESIDING OFFICER: THE SENATOR FROM CONNECTICUT.
{14:49:11 NSP} (MR. BLUMENTHAL) { NOT AN OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT }
MR. BLUMENTHAL: THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. MR. PRESIDENT, I RISE
TODAY TO VOICE MY CONCERNS ABOUT A GREAT DEAL OF THE
CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING A COMPLAINT ISSUED UNDER THE NATIONAL
LABOR RELATIONS ACT AGAINST THE BOEING COMPANY. BOEING RECENTLY
DECIDED TO OPEN A NEW PLANT IN SOUTH CAROLINA. THE NATIONAL
LABOR RELATIONS BOARD'S ACTING GENERAL COUNSEL, LIEF SOLOMON,
ISSUED A COMPLIANCE BECAUSE OF EVIDENCE THIS DECISION WAS MADE
IN RETALIATION FOR RECENT STRIKES AT THE BOEING PLANT IN THE
PUGET SOUPED AREA. SOUPED -- PUGET SOUND AREA. NOW, I HOPE THAT
THERE IS NO DISPUTE ABOUT A COUPLE OF POINTS. FIRST, BOEING IS
A HIGHLY REPUTABLE COMPANY THAT PRODUCES GREAT PRODUCTS VALUED
AROUND THE WORLD AND GREAT JOBS. NOT JUST JOBS BUT GOOD JOBS.
AND THERE SHOULD BE NO DOUBT ALSO ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF
PUBLIC DEBATE, ROBUST CRITICISM OF GOVERNMENT AGENCIES,
INCLUDING THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD WHEN IT MAKES
DECISIONS THAT SPARK DISAGREEMENT. AND I HAVE THE GREATEST OF
RESPECT FOR MY COLLEAGUES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE WHO MAY
HAVE BEEN CRITICAL OF NLRB DECISIONS IN THE PAST AND OF THIS
ACTION IN THE PRESENT. AND THERE SHOULD BE NO DOUBT ALSO ABOUT
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INTEGRITY OF THE NLRB PROCESS WHICH
BEGINS WITH A COMPLAINT, WHICH IS ALL WE HAVE HERE, AGAINST
BOEING AND THEN HAS A PROCEDURE FOR CONSIDERATION BY
ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGE OF THE FACTS AND THE LAW, THEN TO THE
FULL BOARD OF THE NLRB AND A RIGHT OF APPEAL TO THE COURT OF
APPEALS FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT. HERE IN THIS
INSTANCE THERE HAVE BEEN A SERIES OF ATTACKS ON THE COMPLAINT
AND THE ACTING GENERAL COUNSEL THAT INVOLVE APPARENT EFFORTS TO

1
NLRB-FOIA-00001280
IMPEDE OR DERAIL THAT PROCESS AND TO PREJUDGE AND EVENT PREEMPT
THAT PROCESS. THE EFFECT IS SO POLITICIZE AND POTENTIALLY STOP
WHAT SHOULD BE A LEGAL PROCEEDING HANDLED UNDER THE APPROPRIATE
RULES AND LAWS AND STATUTES BY AN INDEPENDENT GOVERNMENT
AGENCY. THIS ISSUE IS ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF THE PROCESS. AT
THIS POINT, THERE IS ONLY A COMPLAINT AGAINST BOEING. THIS
COMPLAINT WAS ISSUED ON THE BASIS OF STATEMENTS AND DOCUMENTS
AND ACTIONS BY THE COMPANY ITSELF. THERE IS CERTAINLY EVIDENCE,
INCLUDING AT LEAST ONE BOEING EXECUTIVE'S STATEMENTS, THAT THE
COMPANY MAY HAVE RETALIATED AGAINST WORKERS. THE NLRB AND THE
ACTING COUNSEL HAVE NOT ONLY THE RIGHT BUT THE RESPONSIBILITY
TO INVESTIGATE AND ACT WHERE THE FACTS AND THE LAW ESTABLISH, A
RIGHT, AN OBLIGATION TO DO SO. SO NO ONE SHOULD BE TRYING TO
PREJUDGE THIS CASE BEFORE IT GOES TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE
AND NO ONE SHOULD BE SEEKING A PASS FROM THE APPROPRIATE
PROCESS AND NO ONE SHOULD BE SEEKING TO INTIMIDATE OR TO
INTERFERE WITH THIS LAWFUL PROCEEDING. I COME TO THE FLOOR
TODAY BECAUSE OF THE PROSPECT OF EXACTLY THAT DANGER OCCURRING
HERE. ON MAY 12, CHAIRMAN DARRELL ISSA, REPRESENTING THE
CHAIRMAN ON GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT AND REFORM, SENT A LETTER TO
THE ACTING GENERAL COWNS HE FEEL THE THE -- COUNSEL OF THE
NLRB, REQUESTING THAT HE PRODUCE ALL RELATED DOCUMENTS
PERTAINING TO THIS CASE. INDEED, THE LETTER HAS A NUMBER OF
PARAGRAPHS THAT ARE SWEEPING IN THEIR SCOPE, REQUESTING, FOR
EXAMPLE, DEMANDING THAT ALL DOCUMENTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
REFERRING OR RELATING TO THE OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL'S
INVESTIGATION OF BOEING, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ALL
COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN THE OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL AND THE
NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD. THE HOUSE COMMITTEE, WITH ALL
DUE RESPECT, IS NOT A COURT, IT IS NOT THE ADMINISTRATIVE
JUDGE, IT IS NOT A PROPER PARTY TO BE DEMANDING THESE DOCUMENTS
IN THE COURSE OF A LAWFUL JUDICIAL PROCEEDING. AND THE
CHAIRMAN'S ATTEMPT TO INSERT THE COMMITTEE INTO THIS CASE BY
CONDUCTING ITS OWN ROUND OF DISCOVERY AT THIS POINT WOULD
INTERFERE WITH THE NLRB'S ABILITY TO PREPARE AND PRESENT ITS
CASE BEFORE A REAL JUDICIAL OFFICER. THESE ACTIONS AND SOME
OTHERS ARE AN ATTACK ON THE INTEGRITY OF THE NLRB, AN ATTACK ON
ITS ABILITY TO MAKE DECISIONS AND ENFORCE THE LAW AS THE UNITED
STATES CONGRESS HAS INSTRUCTED IT AND REQUIRED IT TO DO BASED
ON DECISIONS INVOLVING THE FACTS AND THE LAW ALONE. THE NLRB IS
PART OF OUR NUTRITIONAL SYSTEM, PART OF OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM, AND

2
NLRB-FOIA-00001281
IT SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO JUSTICE IN THIS
INSTANCE. IT SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROTECT
FAIRNESS AND PEACE AT THE WORKPLACE WHICH IS ULTIMATELY ITS
MANDATE AND ITS VERY SOLEMN RESPONSIBILITY, ITS TRADITION AND
ITS MANDATE FROM THE CONGRESS IS SO PROTECT JOBS AND TO FOSTER
ECONOMIC GROWTH BY MAINTAINING PEACE AND FAIRNESS AT THE
WORKPLACE. AND THESE PRIORITIES SHOULD BE SHARED BY ALL OF THE
COUNTRY. I CERTAINLY BELIEVE AND HOPE THAT THE PEOPLE OF
CONNECTICUT WANT FAIRNESS AND PEACE IN THE WORKPLACE, AS WE DO
IN OUR WORKPLACES. THE NLRB, VERY SIMPLY, SHOULD BE GIVEN THAT
OPPORTUNITY TO DO JUSTICE HERE WITHOUT IMPROPER OR
INAPPROPRIATE INTERFERENCE BY MEMBERS OF THE UNITED STATES
CONGRESS OR ANYONE ELSE, AND MY HOPE IS THAT IT WILL BE
VINDICATED AND THAT THE ATTACKS WILL CEASE AND THAT IT WILL BE
GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO FORWARD LAWFULLY AND APPROPRIATELY
AND PROPERLY. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. AND I SUGGEST THE
ABSENCE OF A QUORUM.

Another Labor Board Power Play
The latest attempt to restrict the movement ofbusiness and capital.
The Obama-era NationalLabor Relations Board has tilted so heavilytoward union interests that companies
might be forgiven for thinking the process is rigged against them. Arecent missive from one of the agency's top
lawyers shows why.
In a May10 memo to regionalstaffers, Associate GeneralCounselRichard Siegeldiscusses a March case in which
the NLRB sided with telecommunications companyEmbarq Corp. in a dispute over its decision to close a Las
Vegas callcenter and open a bigger facilityin Florida. The companyrefused to explain to its union the rationale
for the move. In America, business decisions are made byowners or executives and are rarelysubject to
compulsorybargaining, while unions confine their concerns to working conditions, payand benefits.
NLRB Chairwoman Wilma Liebman, a long-time union lawyer,
doesn't like that balance. "The Board's task would be easier, and
more importantly, the [NationalLabor Relations] Act's policyof
promoting collective bargaining might wellbe better served, if
employers were required to provide unions with requested
information about relocation decisions whenever there was a
reasonable likelihood that labor-cost concessions might affect
the decision," she wrote in her concurrence to the Embarq case.
Translation: Ms. Liebman wants to force far more companies to
consult unions when theywant to relocate, because unions might
theoreticallybe able to offer concessions to avert a move if they
had more information. Never mind that such a rule change
would be an unprecedented intrusion into boardrooms, or that
unions might use collective bargaining to request reams of data,
such as payrolls and tax returns, to increase their negotiating
leverage. In a "future case," Ms. Liebman added, "I would be
open to modifying" the rule. Wink, nudge.
And voila, a fewmonths later, we get Mr. Siegel's letter: "The
GeneralCounselwishes to examine the concerns raised by
Associated Press
Chairman Liebman in Embarq, and determine whether to
National Labor Relations Board Chairwoman Wilma
propose a newstandard in cases involving these kinds of
Liebman
information requests." So one of the NLRB's top lawyers is
ordering the troops to scrounge up a case to bring to the
accommodating Ms. Liebman and her two fellowDemocrats who form a 3-2 majorityon the NLRB.
This is getting to be a bad habit. In April, acting generalcounselLafe Solomon challenged Boeing's right to build a
newfactoryin South Carolina, on grounds that such a move would hurt the company's existing union in

Washington state. The case is a frontalassault on "right-to-work" states, which let individualworkers choose
whether to join a union.
As more private workers shun union membership, Big Labor wants government to rig the rules on its behalf. The
current NLRB, the most politicized in memory, is obliging with an unprecedented attack on the free movement of
business and capitalin America. If it succeeds, the result willbe a flight of jobs overseas, not more at home. The
NLRB is controlled byPresident Obama's appointees, and the White House silence on their actions amounts to an
endorsement.

ACS Spotlight on Federal Labor Law and W orkers Rights
ACS Issue Spotlight
National Labor Laws Effectiveness, and State
Attacks on Workers Rights
With lawmakers and conservative activists attacking the National Labor Relations Boards
efforts to enforce federal law to protect workers rights, and state lawmakers, such as those in
Wisconsin and Ohio, taking action to gut collective bargaining of public workers, the American
Constitution Society is releasing two Issue Briefs spotlighting these recent concerns regarding
the rights of workers.
Penn State Dickinson School of Law Professor Ellen Dannin examines in her Issue Brief recent
efforts by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to ensure the effectiveness of the National
Labor Relations Act (NLRA). Dannin writes:
The GCs new initiatives represent a step in the right direction, but much more needs to
be done if the NLRA is to live up to congressional intent at the time of the Acts passage.
At a moment when the NLRB is being inaccurately criticized for being overly expansive
in its decision to issue a complaint against Boeing, I argue that the problem is not that
the NLRA is being interpreted too expansively, but rather the oppositefor too long, the
Act has been interpreted in a manner that robs it of the flexibility and robust array of
remedies intended by those who passed this landmark legislation.
Dannins Issue Brief, No Rights Without a Remedy: The Long Struggle for Effective National
Labor Relations Act Remedies, is available here.
University of Toledo College of Law Professor Joseph E. Slater explores in his Issue Brief the
history of public sector labor laws and some of the current attempts by state lawmakers to
NLRB-FOIA-00001333
undercut those laws. Slater writes:
[P]ublic sector labor law as it has existed for decades has worked well. State deficits are not
caused by public sector bargaining rights . . . . The radical and reactionary amendments to public
sector statutes some states have adopted will thus not help budgets, but they will hurt working
people and public services. And of course, when public workers are harmed, the general public
is harmed . . . . The attacks on collective bargaining are best understood as partisan politics, and
that is no justification for removing a longstanding, important right for working men and
women.
Slaters Issue Brief, The Assault on Public Sector Collective Bargaining: Real Harms and
Imaginary Benefits, is available here.
In addition, at the ACS 2011 National Convention, a group of experts will examine challenges to
workers' rights on a June 17 panel called Privatization, the American Worker, and the Role of
Government. See the ACS 2011 Convention Web page for information about that panel, as well
the entire schedule of events.

1937?
That year, when Americans were expecting their economy to finally pull out of the Great Depression, the stock market dove again, with
the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropping from the 190s in March 1937 to less than 100 in March 1938. Nonfarm private
unemployment, the measure of Roosevelt's industrial economy, increased to more than 18 percent. Industrial production plunged by a
third.
The problem then was monetary, some economists now say. Paul Krugman, in his New York Times column on June 2, argued that
monetary and fiscal tightening caused the 1937 downturn, and might be squeezing the breath out of the economy now, precluding job
creation. Krugman cites Gauti B. Eggertsson of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, who recently published blog posts and papers
noting that the later 1930s, as now, saw higher commodity prices. Officials considered these rising prices a signal of inflation, and
pressed for tightening. They erred.
This version of history holds, to some extent.
Or: Up to a point, Lord Krugman. After spending heavily during the 1936 election, President Franklin D. Roosevelt was now feeling
more like a thrifty "Dutch householder," as the journalist Anne O'Hare McCormick wrote, and his administration cut executive-branch
employees. His Treasury secretary, Henry Morgenthau, claimed that the government had "licked the Great Depression." Tax increases,
themselves a form of fiscal tightening, were passed into law. In January 1937, Americans began to make their first payments into Social
Security, taking away cash that workers might have spent on food, housing, clothing, liquor or cigarettes.
On the monetary side, the Fed doubled reserve requirements on banks, seeking to make them less vulnerable to failure. What the
Federal Reserve didn't anticipate was that this would make the banks nervous, leading them to amass yet more reserves and taking
money out of circulation. The Fed and the Treasury also fiddled with the gold-standard system for fear of inflation.
But two other factors are omitted from this narrative. The first is the price of labor. The Wagner Act, the great modern labor statute,
became law in 1935. It made possible the closed shop, under which only unionized workers were allowed into a unit. In 1937, after
Roosevelt was safely elected, labor leader John L. Lewis and his Congress of Industrial Organizations began using their new power to its
1
NLRB-FOIA-00001386
full extent. Labor's tour de force in this period is memorialized in the photos we still recognize today of sit-down strikes at the General
Motors Co. plant in Flint, Michigan. Strike days in 1937 totaled 28 million, up from 14 million during the election year.
Such labor stoppages, and the threat of more, led companies to raise wages more than they could afford to. Harold Cole of the
University of Pennsylvania and Lee Ohanian of the University of California, Los Angeles, have demonstrated that wages in the latter half
of the 1930s were well above trend for the entire century. Employers also hired less: Even as unionization increased, nonfarm
unemployment did as well.
The second under-discussed issue is what scholar Robert Higgs has called "regime uncertainty." Roosevelt's victory in 1936 had been so
convincing that people believed he might do anything. FDR reinforced this suspicion with an inaugural address so aggressive that
modern presidential advisers would never allow it on the teleprompter. Roosevelt told the nation he sought in government "an
instrument of unimagined power." That scared markets and small businesses.
Roosevelt relished hunting down big firms through regulatory action and blaming new sectors, such as utilities, for slowdowns -- on
some days. Other days, he invited business leaders into the Oval Office and talked about partnership and a "breathing spell."
This inconsistency itself posed a problem. The diary of an Ohio lawyer named Daniel Roth, which was recently republished, captures the
pervasive anxiety of the period. "We are having a bad steel strike in Youngstown and the mills have closed," Roth wrote on June 22,
1937. "The state and federal governments seem to support the labor unions and there has been a complete breakdown of law and order.
Business is very quiet."
From the U.K., John Maynard Keynes wrote to FDR that it was all right to nationalize utilities or to leave them alone -- but what,
Keynes asked, was "the object of chasing the utilities around the lot every other week?"
In this respect, the 1938 midterm gains by Republicans were important because they signaled to Americans that there were limits to
Roosevelt's power. And Roosevelt's decision to turn his attention to Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin, and away from the supposed excesses
of big business, contributed as much as anything else to the eventual recovery.
Addressing these last two areas in today's economy is not hard. To make employment less expensive, the government can undo the
health-care law, our modern version of the Wagner Act, so that employers needn't worry that hiring implies accepting costs they can't
control or even predict. Another boost to hiring would be a more reasonable National Labor Relations Board, not the current one, which
chases companies such as Boeing Co. around the equivalent of Keynes's lot trying to drive up wages. Another would be to cut taxes for
employers, big and small. Uncertainty would diminish if both parties publicly committed to a smaller and less intrusive government.
The problem isn't a single "Mistake of 1937" or "Mistake of 2011." It is the mistakes, multiple, of both periods.

A Message from Congressman Adam Smith
April 22, 2011
Congressman Adam Smith (WA-09), Ranking Member of the House Armed Services
Committee, released the following statement after the National Labor Relations Board
issued a complaint against the Boeing Company alleging that it violated federal labor law
during the decision-making process to transfer a second production line to South Carolina:
I steadfastly support the collective bargaining rights of U.S. workers and hope that the
complaint filed by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) against The Boeing Company
is fully considered under the law. We must be vigilant in maintaining a business environment
where workers can organize and negotiate without fear of intimidation or future retaliation.
The Pacific Northwest is proud of Boeing and its role in the companys long history of
innovation and excellence in aerospace manufacturing. The global market for airplanes is an
increasingly competitive arena where companies are forced to act in their best economic
interests to remain successful. I encourage Boeing to work within the framework of the law as
a global leader in aerospace manufacturing and technology. Boeings recent win of the $35
billion Air Force refueling tanker contract attests that the company and unions can be
incredibly successful when they work together.
I look forward to a fair legal process and will be monitoring the upcoming June 14 NLRB
hearing.
If you have questions or comments, please contact Matt Perry, Deputy District Director, at:

The complaint has nothing to do with state right-to-work laws, which are expressly permitted by the National Labor
Relations Act. Rather it alleges that Boeing decided to locate a particular line of work in a non-union facility to retaliate
against union employees who had engaged in legally-protected strike activity. The result would have been the same had
the line been moved to a non-union facility in any location. Furthermore, the complaint does not seek to close Boeings
South Carolina facility or to prohibit Boeing from making a non-discriminatory decision to do work in that state. Both
parties will have an opportunity to present evidence and arguments at a hearing scheduled before an NLRB administrative
law judge in June, which is the appropriate time to address the merits of the complaint.

Graham on NLRB Complaint against Boeing
WASHINGTON U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today made this statement on the National Labor
Relations Board (NLRB) complaint against Boeing.
This is one of the worst examples of unelected bureaucrats doing the bidding of special interest groups that Ive ever
seen. In this case, the NLRB is doing the bidding of the unions at great cost to South Carolina and our nations economy.
It makes perfect sense for a world-class company like Boeing to diversify their production capabilities. Boeing made a
solid business decision in coming to South Carolina, and we welcome them with open arms. They could have gone
anywhere, but they knew that South Carolina was a great place to do business. Their decision to open their new facility in
North Charleston will pay dividends for the company, its workers, and our state for many years to come. Its a decision
that will stand the test of time.
If successful, the NLRB complaint would allow unions to hold a virtual veto over business decisions. Left to their own
devices, the NLRB would routinely punish right-to-work states that value and promote their pro-business climates. The
current makeup of the NLRB Board has been skewed against business. This action will not be allowed to stand.
I would be surprised if any court recognized the legitimacy of this complaint. Its pretty easy to see that at its heart, this is
about union politics.
As Senator, I will do everything in my power, including introducing legislation cutting off funding for
this wild goose chase, to stop the NLRBs frivolous complaint.

NLRB-FOIA-00001456
April 14, 2011
Telephone conversation with Bill Kilberg, Boeing attorney, on Thursday,
April 7. Kilberg called me (Barry Kearney) because in an earlier conversation we
had concluded that Boeing and the Union were interested in discussing different
issues and further efforts to bring the parties together would be fruitless. At the
start of the conversation he told me that Boeing concurred that nothing more to
discuss and he understood that meant complaint was likely to issue. Kilberg said
that Boeing was going to the Hill to see if they could forestall issuing a complaint.
I said I was very disappointed to hear that. I told him the Agency realized last
October that this was a big deal and that is why we reached out to Boeing so that
they would have every opportunity to address the concerns we had about the
case. After that process I said we again reached out to Boeing to try to resolve
this before any public decision was made. We tried in good faith to work with this
situation and give Boeing every opportunity. I said it doesn't appear to account
for anything. Kilberg response was we have to do what we have to do and you
do what you have to do. The conversation ended.

Mike Luttig, Boeings GC, called me at 2 pm. He told me that he was miffed that
although he had done what I asked (

), I was still
Exemption 5, 7(A)
considering issuing complaint. I told him that the Machinists had proposed
Exemption 5, 7(A)
. He told me that rather than
accept that offer, he thought that he would go to the Hill to prevent me from litigating the
case. I told him that he would have to get such a rider through the Senate. I said that I had
the CEO on tape saying that the move to SC was not because of economics but because
the Machinists strike. I said I had a triable case and that I would do whatever I thought
was right under the NLRA. But I reiterated that I thought the parties should meet and try
to reach a settlement.
3/28/11
Luttig called and I asked Barry Kearney to be on the call with me. Luttig said that Boeing
would not agree to

4/8/11
Senator Graham called me at 11:15 am. I was in the Museum of Modern Art in NYC and
talked to him on my cell phone. He told me that the retaliatory charge of the Machinists
against Boeing would have huge economic and political consequences. He said that the
charge would scare Boeings customers and could affect orders. He said that the political
fallout would be huge and that he was more reasonable than his Senate counterpart (Sen.
De Mint).
I explained to him that I had been trying to settle this case for the last 6 months, and I
asked for his help in getting Boeing to agree
Exemption 5, 7(A)
. I told him that this case had every potential to settle

Exemption 5, 7(A)
, but that I had been unsuccessful in
getting the parties to talk to each other, rather than to me. I also told him that I
and that I had made it clear to the Machinists
Exemption 5, 7(A)
that
Exemption 5, 7(A)
He said that he was pessimistic that the Machinists and Boeing could work things out, but
that he never thought it was a bad idea to talk. I thanked him for being willing to help.
4/11/11
I left a message for Debbie Durkin, the aide to Senator Graham who place the call on Fri.
I received a call back from Walt Kuhn at noon. I told him that I was following up on my
NLRB-FOIA-00001458
conversation with the Senator on Fri and that I wanted to know if he had been successful
in contacting Boeing. He said that the Senator would call me back later this week. I told
Walt that I was ready to begin the complaint process and that I could not hold it up
indefinitely. I said that I wanted to talk to the Senator today if possible, and he said that
he would see what he could do.
4/11/11
Senator Graham called me at 3 pm. He said that he had talked to Boeing, and they had no
interest in
Exemption 5, 7(A)
, which was totally without merit. He said that he
agreed with Boeing and understood their position. He said that if a complaint was filed, it
will be nasty, very, very nasty. He said that this was a case of how not to grow the
economy. He said that we had to do what we had to do, and he had to do what he had to
do. It was up to us. He said that if complaint issued, he was going full guns a-blazing.

Boeing announces solar plan for SC assembly plant
Boeing Co. announced Tuesday that the roof of its new 787 jet assembly plant will be covered with solar panels
and its South Carolina operation will be powered entirely with renewable energy.
By BRUCE SMITH
Associated Press
NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C.
Boeing Co. announced Tuesday that the roof of its new 787 jet assembly plant will be covered with solar panels
and its South Carolina operation will be powered entirely with renewable energy.
South Carolina Electric & Gas will install and maintain the thin panels that will cover the space of about eight
football fields atop the massive assembly building.
The panels will provide up to 2.6 megawatts of electrical power for the site - enough to power about 250 homes.
It will be the largest solar installation by generating capacity in the Southeast and the sixth-largest in the nation,
the company said.
"This will be a 100 percent renewable energy site and it's the first site we have in the world that is making that
commitment," said Jim Albaugh, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes.
Kevin Marsh, the president of SCE&G, said the company is installing and maintaining more than 18,000 solar
panels on the roof of the assembly building, an area of about 10 acres.
SCE&G will supplement the solar energy with power from its system, coupled with renewable energy
certificates, to meet Boeing's energy requirements. Solar projects generate credits that are sold at auction to help
utilities meet their renewable energy goals.
U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said Boeing's decision to use solar power will be noted nationwide.
"The fact that Boeing would lead the way is going to make it easier for other businesses in South Carolina and
in the county to follow," he said.
NLRB-FOIA-00001461
"What this shows us is that Boeing is going to do everything just a little bit better," said fellow U.S. Sen. Jim
DeMint. "South Carolina wants to do everything just a little bit better and I think we're going to see from this
work force is it's a little bit better and is going to be the best in the world."
A group of about 30 Boeing workers were on hand for the announcement. As the officials spoke, C-17s built by
Boeing took off from the nearby Charleston Air Force Base and construction crews continued work nearby on
the 787 assembly plant.
Jack Jones, vice president and general manager for Boeing South Carolina, said the new assembly plant should
be operational in July. The first 787 built there is expected to take off about a year from now.
The $750 million assembly plant represents the largest industrial investment in South Carolina history.

the company's rules barring such disclosures. The court emphasized that in determining
whether Simmons raised a jury issue of pretext, an employer who acts in good faith is
shielded from ADEA liability even if it turns out the employer was mistaken or exercised poor
business judgment.
Simmons cited alleged ageist comments by her two immediate supervisors, who
recommended her termination after the company investigation but did not make the final
decision. The Tenth Circuit said the subordinate bias or cat's paw theory of liability,
endorsed by the U.S. Supreme Court in Staub v. Proctor Hospital, 131 S. Ct. 1186, 111 FEP
Cases 993 (2011), under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights
Act, also applies under the ADEA, but with an additional burden on the plaintiff.
Although we apply the subordinate bias doctrine to age discrimination cases, the ADEA
requires more than what must ordinarily be proven under an analogous Title VII [of the 1964
Civil Rights Act] or USERRA action, Judge Monroe G. McKay wrote. If we were to apply
Staub directly to an age-discrimination case, the plaintiff would only need to prove her
supervisor's animus was somehow related to the termination and not that the animus was
necessary to bring about the termination.
Given that the Supreme Court also has ruled that ADEA plaintiffs must show that age was
the but for cause of an adverse employment action, however, the court said that
requirement remains even in a cat's paw case. Thus, even after Staub, an ADEA plaintiff
seeking to hold an employer liable through the discriminatory conduct of its subordinate
must show the subordinate's animus was a but-for' cause of the adverse employment

action, i.e., it was the factor that made a difference, the court said.
Since Simmons failed to produce evidence to support such a finding, the court affirmed
dismissal of her ADEA claim.

National Contract Between IBT, First Student Has Standard Work Rules, Grievance
Policy
Members of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters have ratified a first national
collective bargaining agreement with First Student Inc. that improves job conditions and
provides protections for more than 20,000 school bus drivers and other workers, the union
announced June 1.
The four-year contract creates a national grievance procedure and provides strong language
to raise standards for Teamster members at the company, which is the largest private
provider of school bus transportation in North America, the union said in its release.
Maureen Richmond, director of Media Relations for First Student at its headquarters in
Cincinnati, Ohio, told BNA today that economic issues will continue to be negotiated on a
contract-by-contract basis at the local level. The national agreement, she said, provides
customers with industry-leading assurances of uninterrupted service. It also provides
national dispute resolution, and the highest level of safety and quality standards, she said.
Richmond said the ratification of the agreement signifies a new era in labor relations and a
commitment to ongoing collaboration. She added that for the first time in the student
transport industry in the United States principles of Freedom of Association and
International Human Rights are incorporated into a contract.
She explained that the contract contains language pledging that the company recognizes the
right of employees to choose or not choose to be represented by a union without undue
pressure from management.

NMB to Investigate AFA Charges That Delta Interfered With Flight Attendants
Election
ATLANTAThe National Mediation Board announced June 1 that it will conduct a full onsite
investigation into whether Delta Air Lines interfered with a representation election of flight
attendants last November that the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA lost by a close
margin.
Delta and AFA were notified in a letter from NMB General Counsel Mary L. Johnson that an
investigator will interview both parties and conduct the onsite investigation to determine
whether laboratory conditions were tainted.
NLRB-FOIA-00001580
AFA-CWA filed interference charges last Nov. 23 with NMB, alleging that in its representation
loss among flight attendants, Delta management compromised the secrecy of the ballot and
coerced employees to vote against the union (227 DLR AA-1, 11/26/10).
If NMB finds enough evidence that interference occurred, it can order a new election.
In the November 2010 election, Delta flight attendants voted against representation by AFA
for the carrier's combined workforce following its 2008 merger with Northwest Airlines (212
DLR A-3, 11/3/10). About 51 percent of the Delta flight attendants who cast ballots, or 9,544
workers, voted against representation, while 49 percent, or 9,216 workers, voted in favor,
leaving AFA 165 votes short of the 9,381 yes votes needed to win.
As a result, AFA, an affiliate of the Communication Workers of America, could be decertified
as the representative of approximately 7,100 flight attendants at the former Northwest, and
Delta's combined workforce of about 20,000 flight attendants would be unrepresented.

South Carolina Boeing Workers File Motion to Intervene in Unfair Labor Practice
Case
South Carolina employees of Boeing Co. who contend that a National Labor Relations Board
unfair labor practice complaint against the company threatens their employment filed a
motion June 1 asking to intervene in the case (Boeing Co., NLRB, No. 19-CA-32431, motion
filed 6/1/11).
NLRB Acting General Counsel Lafe E. Solomon authorized the complaint, which alleges that
Boeing unlawfully established a second assembly line for its 787 Dreamliners in South
Carolina because Seattle-area employees represented by the International Association of
Machinists repeatedly engaged in lawful economic strikes against the company.
Noting that the acting general counsel seeks an order requiring Boeing to have IAM-
represented employees in Washington operate a second assembly line there, the South
Carolina employees argued in the motion that they have a right to be heard in opposition to
the draconian remedy sought by the General Counsel, since they will surely be terminated if
the General Counsel's position is sustained.
Employees Dennis Murray, Cynthia Ramaker, and Meredith Going filed the motion with
NLRB's Seattle regional director, asking that he grant the motion or refer it to an
administrative law judge for ruling at or before the start of a June 14 hearing on the unfair
labor practice allegations. The employees are represented by attorneys from the National
Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation.

Subject: Republican Threats to NLRB 'Disgraceful'
May 12, 2011
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) says attempts by Republican senators to intimidate
the National Labor Relations Board are "disgraceful and dangerous." Republicans are demanding
the agency drop its complaint against the Boeing Co. Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) says it is
"another example of the Republican assault on the middle class" done at the urging of
"powerful corporate interests."

WASHINGTON U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today made this statement on the
National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) complaint against Boeing.
This is one of the worst examples of unelected bureaucrats doing the bidding of special interest groups
that Ive ever seen. In this case, the NLRB is doing the bidding of the unions at great cost to South
Carolina and our nations economy.
It makes perfect sense for a world-class company like Boeing to diversify their production capabilities.
Boeing made a solid business decision in coming to South Carolina, and we welcome them with open
arms. They could have gone anywhere, but they knew that South Carolina was a great place to do
business. Their decision to open their new facility in North Charleston will pay dividends for the company,
its workers, and our state for many years to come. Its a decision that will stand the test of time.
If successful, the NLRB complaint would allow unions to hold a virtual veto over business decisions.
Left to their own devices, the NLRB would routinely punish right-to-work states that value and promote
their pro-business climates. The current makeup of the NLRB Board has been skewed against business.
This action will not be allowed to stand.
I would be surprised if any court recognized the legitimacy of this complaint. Its pretty easy to see that
at its heart, this is about union politics. As Senator, I will do everything in my power, including
introducing legislation cutting off funding for this wild goose chase, to stop the NLRBs frivolous
complaint.

Boeing
From european planet labor website(some wording oddities are just due to translation (from
french)):
United States: Boeing could not be able to open its new plant in South Carolina because of
antiunion behavior
Experts from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) turned to the administrative justice
to prevent the start of production in Boeing's new factory in South Carolina. The reason is
that the aircraft manufacturer allegedly chose this location on the basis of antiunion
criteria. (Ref. 110281)
The NLRB, which arbitrates conflicts between unions and businesses, is blaming Boeing.
Legal
expert Lafe Solomon filed a complaint against the aircraft manufacturer, accusing the company
of breaking Federal Law by investing into another assembly line for its 787 Dreamliner
production in South Carolina.
The lawyer thinks that Boeing management decided to relocate
production partly to retaliate against unionized workers for past strikes on its Puget
Sound site in Washington State.
The management says they were too inclined to go on strike.
Yet, A worker's right to strike is a fundamental right guaranteed by the National Labor
Relations Act, Solomon said.
The NLRB expert looked at the Boeing case at the request of the National Association of
Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAMAW).
The union represents 25,000 Boeing workers in
Washington State, where the manufacturing owns many factories.

launched negotiations with IAMAW representatives in Puget Sound.
In 2007, Boeing management
There, Boeing already
assembled 7 Dreamliners a month and wanted to open another line to produce three more 787
each month.
Talks lingered.
Finally, in October 2009, the management decided to invest in
South Carolina, a right to work state where unionists arent welcome.
Two billion dollars were invested in Charleston, 1,000 employees were recruited, and the site
was supposed to open in July until the NLRB meddled in.
Lafe Solomon investigated for two
years, notably looking at Boeing executives declarations to the local media.
An article
published in the Seattle Times reads that the overriding factor to move to South Carolina
was not the business climate. And it was not the wages were paying today. It was that we
cannot afford to have a work stoppage, you know, every three years.
listed 4 strikes in Puget Sound since 1989.
Boeing management has
In 2008, it lasted for 58 days and cost the
company $1.8bn, which was particularly noticed.
By packing, the IAMAW leaders are saying
that the manufacturer is retaliating against past strike and trying to deter future social
movements.
Boeings general counsel, J. Michael Luttig, said: This claim is legally frivolous and
represents a radical departure from both NLRB and Supreme Court precedent. For his part, Lafe
Solomon said that he didnt want the Charleston site to close and is hoping for an out-of-
court settlement between Boeing and the IAMAW.
If the parties cannot arrive at a settlement,
the next step will be a hearing before an NLRB administrative law judge set for June 14.
The
case could last for years.

Article re: Yesterday's Hearing
Sarahs testimony was great.
NLRB
The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee set a May 12 hearing to consider the future of the
U.S. middle class, but most of the session was taken up with questions and debate over a National Labor
Relations Board proceeding involving America's largest exporter, Boeing Co.
Former labor secretary Robert B. Reich and Heather Boushey, senior economist with the Center for American
Progress, addressed widening income gaps and economic stresses on middle class families, but senators asked
more questions of J. Michael Luttig, Boeing's general counsel, who was invited to appear by Ranking Member
Michael B. Enzi (R-Wyo.) and discussed the NLRB acting general counsel's April 20 complaint alleging that
the company illegally transferred jetliner production from Washington state to South Carolina in retaliation for
Puget Sound area employees having supported past strikes by the International Association of Machinists (77
DLR AA-1, 4/21/11).
Luttig called the unfair labor practice complaint preposterous on its face and Enzi blasted it as not the way to
encourage new job creation in the U.S. but Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) questioned the appropriateness
of vigorous and even vicious attacks on the NLRB, while Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), chairman of the
committee, said the Boeing case has become a political thing and warned that what borders on the unethical
is for people in the political branchthe Congressto begin to interfere in a judicial process and to try to make
it a political matter.
Former NLRB Member Sarah M. Fox, now legal counsel for the AFL-CIO, told the committee that the National
Labor Relations Act was intended not only to protect workers but to be part of a positive national economic
strategy, and argued that the only thing extraordinary about the complaint against Boeing is the size of the
company and the magnitude of the business decision that is in dispute.
Committee Leaders Offer Differing Views
Harkin opened the hearing noting that his state experienced more than 200 plant closings in 2010, with a loss of
nearly 12,000 jobs, and said Congress must make smarter policy choices to restore the fundamental promise of
the American Dream.
One of those smarter policy choices, Harkin said, would be to restore the voice of working Americans by
strengthening workers' rights, and defending the agency that protects those rightsthe National Labor
Relations Board.
Harkin said NLRB career employees have come under vicious and unfair political attack for carrying out their
duties under the law in what he alleged was part of a larger political campaign that we are seeing across the
country to unfairly scapegoat workers and their unions for our nation's problems.
But Enzi said the acting general counsel issued a complaint against Boeing that left employers across the
country greatly disturbed that a bureaucrat serving in an acting capacity could direct U.S. companies about
where to locate facilities.
Among his concerns, Enzi said, is whether NLRB is targeting the 22 states which have right-to-work laws like
South Carolina's. Those states, Enzi said, have been an engine of new job creation and have attracted foreign
employers to the United States. Enzi said he and his colleagues will fight to oppose the creation of any deterrent
to investment in right-to-work states, and he charged that the NLRB complaint against Boeing shows this
administration has yet to get the message.

NLRB-FOIA-00001721
Reich, Boushey Stress Need for Viable Middle Class
Reich, now a professor of public policy at the University of California at Berkeley, told the panel that the U.S.
economy is in a lopsided recovery, with stock prices and executive compensation on the rise, but the average
worker not getting much out of the recovery.
Workers have adopted coping mechanisms to deal with economic adversity in the past, such as having two
spouses working, Reich observed, but there's a limit on how many women with young children can go to
work and he commented that service jobs recently created in restaurants and other businesses do not pay very
much.
Reich said Americans went into debt and used their homes as sources of wealth until a housing bubble burst,
depriving them of their last coping mechanism. Now, he said, there is not enough money in the middle class
to keep the country running, while the wealthiest Americans have become even richer.
Reich said he hears a common refrain that the United States cannot raise taxes on those with the highest
incomes or greatest wealth, but added, I frankly don't know what they're talking about!
Boushey told the panel that supply-siders believe the key to economic growth is for government to reduce
taxes and limit regulation in order to spur investment, but small businesses report that their single largest
concern is poor sales revenue.
Stating that lowering wages and a hollowed out middle class means that consumers can demand less and less
each year, Boushey said when every employer focuses solely on reducing wages at the expense of all else,
this has devastating consequences for the economy overall.
The economist said without fear of retaliation, collective bargaining helped us grow.
Boeing Lawyer Challenges NLRB Complaint
Luttig, who served as a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit before resigning to join
Boeing, told the panel that the NLRB complaint is enormously consequential for the company, which already
has received about 850 orders for its long-awaited 787 Dreamliner airplane.
Most Dreamliner production will take place in the Puget Sound area of Washington state where IAM represents
Boeing employees, but Luttig said the demand for the Dreamliner required the company to build a second
assembly line. Boeing considered Washington, South Carolina, and other locations and made a considered
business judgment based on a host of considerations that favored South Carolina, he said.
Stating that the company has invested $1 billion in a state-of-the-art facility in North Charleston, S.C., Luttig
argued that alleging the company made its decision in retaliation for the earlier strike activity by Washington
workers was insupportable. No company spends a sum like Boeing's investment out of spite, the lawyer said.
Calling the unfair labor practice complaint a breathtaking substitution of the board for the management of an
American company, Luttig argued that concern about the NLRB action might make companies reluctant to
expand into a right to work state like South Carolina. He said companies also might hesitate before building
facilities and employing workers in a state that does not have a right to work law, fearing that a later attempt to
move to a right to work state might be challenged as illegal under the NLRA.
Calling the NLRB complaint legally unfounded and irresponsible, Luttig said it should be of concern to all.
Former NLRB Member Says Case Not Extraordinary
But Fox said NLRB cases alleging unlawful transfers of work by employers were not extraordinary, and she
said that the NLRB complaint alleges that Boeing engaged in just such a transfer of work to South Carolina
because the firm's Washington employees had exercised their right under the NLRA to engage in strikes.
Stating that NLRB is responsible for protection of employee rights including the right to strike, Fox said there
was nothing extraordinary about this complaint.
Americans have a right to expect that statutory rights will be enforced, Fox said, adding that recent attacks on
the agency have been disturbing.
Reich Opposes Relentless Attacks' on Labor
Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.) told Reich that he assumed the economist supported what NLRB was trying to do,
but Reich said he would not prejudge the case and called it a distraction from the Senate committee's work of
considering the issue that was the purpose for the hearing.
NLRB-FOIA-00001722
Noting that the case had not even begun a process that would include an administrative law judge hearing,
board review, and possible consideration by the courts, Reich said it was inappropriate to prejudge the outcome
of the case.
Asked by Isakson whether he knew of any time when NLRB had made a decision to retroactively invalidate a
capital investment of $ 1 billion, Reich said there had been no NLRB decision and he was not an NLRB
historian. However, Reich responded that as a history buff with regard to labor, I am shocked and deeply
upset by the relentless attack on organized labor, on unionization, and the rights of employees in this country to
unionize.
NLRB Process, Effect of Complaint Debated
Blumenthal, in his first term representing Connecticut, told Luttig that he is troubled by the attack on the
NLRB process, which he observed is at a very incipient state, and asked the Boeing general counsel for his
reaction.
I don't see a vicious attack on the NLRB, Luttig said. On the facts here, he said, the acting general counsel
has brought a public policy issue of some import.
But Blumenthal said the unfair labor practice case involves statements about the Dreamliner decision allegedly
made by Boeing executives, and the context in which those remarks were made and in which they should be
interpreted. Calling that classically the kind of factual dispute that cannot be resolved before litigation even
begins, Blumenthal said NLRB's case against Boeing should not be prejudged.
Blumenthal also asked Luttig whether he believed that the company faced inevitable defeat in the unfair labor
practice case before NLRB, and the Boeing lawyer replied that I presumptively expect to lose. He said he
based that opinion on institutional reasons that the general counsel and the board will share the same view of
the law, but expressed confidence that the company ultimately would prevail in a court review of a board order.
Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) asked Luttig how long it could take to obtain judicial review of an adverse
NLRB ruling, and the lawyer said it could take about two years. Alexander asked whether there are Boeing
suppliers in Washington now considering whether to locate operations in or near South Carolina in anticipation
of the company's plan to build three Dreamliners per month there.
Luttig agreed that suppliers are trying to make plans and decisions, and agreed with Alexander that waiting
several years for a resolution of the NLRB complaint will leave not only Boeing but also other companies in
doubt about their rights and business options.
Alexander asked whether it was unethical for the Senate committee to be considering such an issue at a
hearing, and Luttig agreed that it was not improper.
Harkin Questions Senate Hearing Boeing Dispute
But Harkin expressed regret that so much of the hearing had been devoted to the Boeing dispute rather than
broader issues about the economy and the middle class. He also said he didn't think a Senate hearing on the
dispute was appropriate.
The committee chairman noted that in Pillsbury Co. v. FTC, 354 F.2d 952 (5th Cir. 1968), an administrative
agency order against a company was overturned after a federal appeals court concluded that a Senate
committee's conducting a hearing on the dispute while it was pending before the agency violated due process
rights of one of the parties.
Harkin also noted that on May 11, Jim McNerney, Boeing's president and chief executive officer, wrote an op-
ed piece in the Wall Street Journal that challenged the NLRB action, but the executive also wrote that [t]he
NLRB's overreach could accelerate the overseas flight of good, middle-class American jobs.
Harkin said the company is a major supplier to the federal government, earning about $19.5 billion from
government sales, and Harkin would have preferred that McNerney include assurances in his op-ed piece that
Boeing does not intend to move jobs out of the United States.
Luttig said the executive did not make a veiled threat at all but only a general observation. Luttig offered his
own assurances on behalf of Boeing that the company has no plan to export jobs from the United States.

United States: rebirth for the National Labor
Relations Board
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), which arbitrates conflicts between unions and businesses, is more
and more active. Legal expert Lafe Solomon recently filed a complaint in U.S. District Court in Phoenix against
a recently passed amendment in Arizona aiming to limit union activities in businesses. (Ref. 110325)
The amendment passed in Arizona recognizes only secret ballot elections as the means for representation
elections and prohibits a process known as card check with which a majority of employees simply need to
sign a petition to introduce a union in the company. Unions like this process because it is easier. Three other
States which voted similar restrictions South Carolina, South Dakota and Utah are in the NLRBs line of
sight. Lafe Solomon said he would take care of these later, saying that these amendments violate Federal Labor
Law.
A few weeks earlier, the legal advisor attacked Boeing which he says illegally moved the production of 787
Dreamliners from Washington state to south Carolina to avoid repeated strike action (see our dispatch No.
110281). Yet, the right to strike is also guaranteed in the 1935 National Labor Relations Act.
NLRB lawyers are definitely increasingly present, surprising employers. no company will be safe from the
NLRB stepping in to second-guess its business decisions on where to expand or whom to hire declared Joe
Trauger, a vice president with the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM). It is true that the agency was
much less active during the Bush administration. Indeed, the former President left 3 vacant seats (out of 5) on
the NLRBs board, which almost completely paralyzed it.
Barack Obama nominated two lawyers, Craig Becker and Mark Pearce, more attentive to unions claims. He
also appointed Wilma Liebman as the chairman (see our dispatch No. 110106 for her interview) and Lafe
Solomon as general legal advisor. For the public, he is the one who embodies this rebirth, because he is able to
file complaints with ordinary courts for the most serious offenses (since the NLRB is an administrative court.
This claim represents a radical departure from both NLRB and Supreme Court precedent," Michael Luttig,
Boeing's general counsel, said in a statement. However, Lafe Solomon, civil servant with the agency for 39
years, also has followers. He isnt a radical, hes simply enforcing the law said assure Kate Bronfenbrenner,
Director of Labor Education Research, Cornell University. She added, I studied 1,000 past NLRB rulings.
Those passed at the time of the Bush administration were extreme, they didnt comply with the facts or the spirit
of the law. Lawyers that appreciate the NLRBs revived activity are hoping that it wont stop. Thus, student
teachers right to unionize could come back to the front of the stage, as well as the possibility to hand out flyers
in the plants parking lots. These two initiatives had always been prohibited under the Bush administration.

NLRB-FOIA-00001740
In case you prefer the French version:
Etats-Unis : le National Labor Relations Board en
pleine renaissance
L'agence fdrale amricaine NLRB (National Labor Relations Board), qui arbitre les conflits entre syndicats et
entreprises, est de plus en plus active. Son conseiller juridique gnral Lafe Solomon vient de porter plainte
devant la cour du district de Phoenix contre un amendement, vot par les lus de l'tat de l'Arizona, visant
limiter les activits syndicales dans les entreprises. (Rf. 110325)
L'amendement de l'Arizona impoe le vote bulletins secrets et interdit le processus des card check , selon
lequel il suffit de faire signer une ptition par une majorit d'employs pour introduire le syndicat dans
l'entreprise. Un processus apprci par les syndicats, car il est plus facile. Trois autres tats, dans lesquels ont
t votes les mmes types de restrictions sont dans la ligne de mire : Caroline du Sud, Dakota du Sud et Utah.
Lafe Solomon promet de s'en occuper plus tard, car selon lui, ces amendements sont contraires a la loi fdrale
sur le travail.
Quelques semaines plus tt, le conseiller juridique s'en tait pris au groupe Boeing qui, affirme-t-il, a
illgalement dmnag la production des 787 Dreamliner de l'tat de Washington vers la Caroline du Sud
pour viter les grves a rptition (v. dpche n110281). Or, le droit de grve est lui aussi garanti par la loi de
1935 rglementant les relations du travail.
Les juristes du NLRB se font dcidment de plus en plus entendre. A la grande surprise du patronat. Aucune
compagnie ne sera protge contre l'intervention de l'agence NLRB remettant en cause ses dcisions
conomiques et notamment les meilleurs endroits ou se dvelopper , dit-on, la National Association of
Manufacturers. L'agence, il est vrai, tait beaucoup plus discrte du temps du prsident rpublicain George
Bush. L'ancien prsident avait en effet laiss vacant 3 des 5 siges du conseil d'administration de NLRB, ce qui
l'avait quasiment paralys.
Le dmocrate Barack Obama lui nomme deux avocats Craig Becker et Mark Pearce, plus sensibles aux
demandes des syndicats. Et il a promu Wilma Liebman, prsidente (v. dpche n110106 pour une interview de
Mme Liebman) et Lafe Solomon, conseiller juridique gnral. Cest ce dernier, qui est une sorte de procureur
capable de saisir les juridictions ordinaires dans les cas les plus graves (le NLRB tant une juridiction
administrative) qui incarne, aux yeux du public, ce renouveau. Il y a un changement radical par rapport aux
dcisions de l'agence NLRB prcdente et de la Cour suprme avait dclar l'expert juridique de Boeing
Michael Luttig. Mais Lafe Solomon, fonctionnaire depuis 39 ans de l'agence a aussi ses dfenseurs. Ce n'est
pas un extrmiste, il ne fait qu'appliquer la loi, assure Kate Bronfenbrenner, Professeur l'cole des relations du
travail l'universit Cornell. Et de poursuivre : J'ai tudi 1000 dcisions passes du NLRB. Ce sont celles de
l'poque Bush qui taient extrmes, elles ne suivaient ni les faits, ni l'esprit de la loi . Les juristes qui
apprcient le regain d'activits du NLRB esprent que l'agence n'en restera pas l. Le droit des tudiants
professeurs se syndiquer pourrait ainsi revenir au premier plan, tout comme la possibilit de distribuer des
tracts dans les parkings des usines. Deux initiatives jusqu' prsent interdites par l'administration Bush.

do you have any problem with this summary of your presentation last week?
At the request of the Labor and Employee Relations Practice Group, Lafe Solomon, Acting
General Counsel of the NLRB, recently met with a group of our clients and attorneys to
discuss and respond to questions regarding some of his recent controversial decisions and
initiatives.
Solomon opened the discussion by providing his reasoning behind the much publicized complaint
he authorized against the Boeing Company regarding its decision to produce certain aircraft
in South Carolina. Solomon emphasized that in his view there was nothing "unprecedented"
about the complaint and that it was based on evidence which, in his view, would demonstrate
Boeing's retaliatory, and therefore illegal, motive in making its decision.

Boeing is Wrong, the NLRB Is Right
The recent complaint filed by the National Labor Relations Board's general counsel
against Boeing's efforts to relocate its production facility from Washington state to South
Carolina has unleashed a flurry of anger among big business interests ("The White
House vs. Boeing: A Tennessee Tale" by Sen. Lamar Alexander, op-ed, April 26).
This outrage should instead be redirected at Boeing for explicitly and egregiously
breaking the law. It is illegal to retaliate against employees exercising their rights to form
a union or strike, and that is exactly what the company did. The complaint issued was
based on public comments from Boeing executives making clear their reasons for
relocation: to avoid strikes by their employees.
The general counsel, in exercising his sworn duty to uphold the National Labor
Relations Act, had no choice but to issue a complaint against the company's violation.
To not have done so would send the wrong signal to both American employers and
workersthat it's OK to flagrantly break our labor laws.

Washington's actions have assaulted the capitalist principles that have sustained America's
competitiveness since it became the world's largest economy nearly 140 years ago.
By J I M M C N E R N E Y
Deep into the recent recession, Boeing decided to invest more than $1 billion in a new factory in South
Carolina. Surging global demand for our innovative, new 787 Dreamliner exceeded what we could build
on one production line and we needed to open another.
This was good news for Boeing and for the economy. The new jetliner assembly plant would be the first
one built in the U.S. in 40 years. It would create new American jobs at a time when most employers are
hunkered down. It would expand the domestic footprint of the nation's leading exporter and make it more
competitive against emerging plane makers from China, Russia and elsewhere. And it would bring hope
to a state burdened by double-digit unemploymentwith the construction phase alone estimated to
create more than 9,000 total jobs.
Eighteen months later, a North Charleston swamp has been transformed into a state-of-the-art, green-
energy powered, 1.2 million square-foot airplane assembly plant. One thousand new workers are hired
and being trained to start building planes in July.
It is an American industrial success story by every measure. W ith 9% unemployment nationwide, we need
more of themand soon.
Yet the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) believes it was a mistake and that our actions were
unlawful. It claims we improperly transferred existing work, and that our decision reflected "animus" and
constituted "retaliation" against union-represented employees in Washington state. Its remedy: Reverse
course, Boeing, and build the assembly line where we tell you to build it.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Boeing employees work on the 787 Dreamliner at the North Charleston, S.C., facility.
The NLRB is wrong and has far overreached its authority. Its action is a fundamental assault on the
capitalist principles that have sustained America's competitiveness since it became the world's largest
economy nearly 140 years ago. We've made a rational, legal business decision about the allocation of our
capital and the placement of new work within the U.S. We're confident the federal courts will reject the
claim, but only after a significant and unnecessary expense to taxpayers.
NLRB-FOIA-00002206
More worrisome, though, are the potential implications of such brazen regulatory activism on the U.S.
manufacturing base and long-term job creation. The NLRB's overreach could accelerate the overseas
flight of good, middle-class American jobs.
Contrary to the NLRB's claim, our decision to expand in South Carolina resulted from an objective
analysis of the same factors we use in every site selection. W e considered locations in several states but
narrowed the choice to either North Charleston (where sections of the 787 are built already) or Everett,
Wash., which won the initial 787 assembly line in 2003.
Our union contracts expressly permit us to locate new work at our discretion. However, we viewed Everett
as an attractive option and engaged voluntarily in talks with union officials to see if we could make the
business case work. Among the considerations we sought were a long-term "no-strike clause" that would
ensure production stability for our customers, and a wage and benefit growth trajectory that would help in
our cost battle against Airbus and other state-sponsored competitors.
Despite months of effort, no agreement was reached. Union leaders couldn't meet expectations on our
key issues, and we couldn't accept their demands that we remain neutral in all union-organizing
campaigns and essentially guarantee to build every future Boeing airplane in the Puget Sound area. In
October 2009, we made the Charleston selection.
Important to our case is the basic fact that no existing work is being transferred to South Carolina, and not
a single union member in Washington has been adversely affected by this decision. In fact, we've since
added more than 2,000 union jobs there, and the hiring continues. The 787 production line in Everett has
a planned capacity of seven airplanes per month. The line in Charleston will build three additional
airplanes to reach our 10-per-month capacity plan. Production of the new U.S. Air Force aerial refueling
tanker will sustain and grow union jobs in Everett, too.
Before and after the selection, we spoke openly to employees and investors about our competitive
realities and the business considerations of the decision. The NLRB now is selectively quoting and
mischaracterizing those comments in an attempt to bolster its case. This is a distressing signal from one
arm of the government when others are pushing for greater openness and transparency in corporate
decision making.
It is no secret that over the years Boeing and union leaders have struggled to find the right way to work
together. I don't blame that all on the union, or all on the company. Both sides are working to improve that
dynamic, which is also a top concern for customers. Virgin Atlantic founder Richard Branson put it this
way following the 2008 machinists' strike that shut down assembly for eight weeks: "If union leaders and
management can't get their act together to avoid strikes, we're not going to come back here again. We're
already thinking, 'Would we ever risk putting another order with Boeing?' It's that serious."
Despite the ups-and-downs, we hold no animus toward union members, and we have never sought to
threaten or punish them for exercising their rights, as the NLRB claims. To the contrary, union members
are part of our company's fabric and key to our success. About 40% of our 155,000 U.S. employees are
represented by unionsa ratio unchanged since 2003.
Nor are we making a mass exodus to right-to-work states that forbid compulsory union membership. W e
have a sizable presence in 34 states; half are unionized and half are right-to-work. We make decisions on
work placement based on business principlesnot out of emotion or spite. For example, last year we
added new manufacturing facilities in Illinois and Montana. One work force is union-represented, the
other is not. Both decisions made business sense.
The world the NLRB wants to create with its complaint would effectively prevent all companies from
placing new plants in right-to-work states if they have existing plants in unionized states. But as an
unintended consequence, forward-thinking CEOs also would be reluctant to place new plants in unionized
stateslest they be forever restricted from placing future plants elsewhere across the country.
NLRB-FOIA-00002207
U.S. tax and regulatory policies already make it more attractive for many companies to build new
manufacturing capacity overseas. That's something the administration has said it wants to change and is
taking steps to address. It appears that message hasn't made it to the front offices of the NLRB.

Scott Hamilton, managing director of the Leeham Company, an aviation consulting firm, sees one possible
route toward a settlement. He said production demands were so great for the Dreamliner that Boeing
could expand its long-term production of aircraft to at least 10 a month in the Puget Sound area, from the
planned seven, while still keeping the production line in South Carolina. That way, he said, Boeing could
say the union cannot complain that its members had been hurt by creating the South Carolina production
line. He said Boeing has recently talked of assembling 17 Dreamliners a month.

Plane Nonsense - Sorting out the Facts
in the Boeing Case
Authored by: Ellen Dannin
Posted By: Ellen Dannin - Pennsylvania State University
Posted May 13, 2011
The NLRB has tried to address this problem with its new Office of Public Affairs. Not only is
there now a front page link to information, but following that link will lead to clear reports on
significant cases, such as Boeing, with links within the case report to copies of significant
documents, such as the complaint.
So reporters could easily find information on this case, but few, it seems, take advantage of it.
Instead, we continue to see reporters churning out views instead of news. And rather than
helping the public understand the issues, we have news as a contact sport complete with
competitive cheerleading.
The result in the Boeing case is news stories filled with attack statements directed toward the
NLRB, NLRA, and Acting General Counsel Lafe Solomon. We read pro-con views rather than
facts that could be found easily by reading the NLRBs complaint and the Office of Public
Affairs memo.
Here, then are a few corrections of commonly reported ideas / claims / events.
First, this case is not about right to work states. Rather, this is a garden variety case of an
employers retaliating against its employees for striking when the parties were unable to come to
an agreement on terms and conditions of employment during bargaining. In the Boeing case, we
also have an employers making anti-union public statements over a number of years that it
would move the Dreamliner work to South Carolina because Boeing was unhappy about its
Oregon and Washington employees past strikes. The NLRB complaint sets out the dates and
statements it relies on.
NLRB-FOIA-00002219
The NLRB has decades of experience with cases of this sort, and the National Labor Relations
Act is clear that employer actions like Boeings violate the law. If this were a murder case, it
would be a case in which the police found a person saying : I did it, while standing over a
fresh corpse with smoking gun in hand.
Indeed, the only thing that is special about this case is that Boeing made so many public
statements threatening to take actions that violated the law. Indeed, the remarkable thing would
have been for the General Counsel not to issue a complaint on the evidence it had.
The law is clear about the rights and wrongs of this sort of case.
The NLRA says in section 13 that the right to strike is protected by law.
Section 7 declares that employees engaging in or refusing to engage in concerted activities,
such as giving one another mutual aid or support, is activity that is protected by law.
It is a violation of the NLRA to discourage employees from engaging in protected concerted
activity, which includes strikes, and to discriminate against employees in order to encourage or
discourage union membership.
Second, the complaint, which was issued after an investigation, charges that Boeings actions
were not only illegal but were so pervasive and serious that they were inherently destructive of
employees protected rights under the NLRA.
Third, despite the seriousness of the employers acts, the NLRB has not sought as a remedy that
Boeing cannot produce its products in South Carolina. This case is not about right to work states,
as some news stories have claimed. This is not a case about taking away work from South
Carolina workers.
Rather, this is a case that is about work that was illegally taken away to illegally retaliate against
workers for engaging in acts that are protected under law - striking. The remedy is that the work
that was transferred must be performed in Washington.
This does not mean that Boeing cannot do work in South Carolina or any state for that matter.
The complaint says that as long as Boeings decisions are not made for illegal motives, it can
have work done it South Carolina:
Other than as set forth in paragraph 13(a) abov e, the relief requested by the A cting General
Counsel does not seek to prohibit Respondent from making non-discriminatory decisions with
respect to where work will be perform ed, including non-discrim inatory decisions with respect to
w ork at its N orth Charleston, S outh Carolina, facility. T he com plaint also asks as a rem edy
that a B oeing official read aloud to the em ployees (or be present w hile B oard agent reads aloud)
a notice to em ployees of their rights under the NLRA and post that notice on Boeings intranet.
Second, news stories have generally fallen down on reporting on the process that led to the
issuance of the complaint and on the process that will later take place. The basics are that there
was an investigation after a charge was filed alleging that NLRA had been violated. The
charging party had to submit evidence to support that charge, and the NLRB investigators
NLRB-FOIA-00002220
assigned to the case took evidence from all parties. What is special in this case was that part of
the evidence could be found by checking the newspapers for Boeings threats.
Once the investigation was complete, the General Counsels office decides whether there was
reasonable case to believe the NLRA was violated. If reasonable cause exists, then the complaint
is issued, and efforts are made to settle the case.
If the case is not settled, then the case is scheduled for a hearing before an Administrative Law
Judge. All parties will have an opportunity to present witnesses and other evidence. Once the
trial is over, the ALJ will assess the evidence presented at trial and decide whether or not the law
has been violated. The ALJs decision can be to find that all, none, or some of the alleged
violations occurred. The parties can appeal the ALJs decision case to the Board.
Third, some have claimed that the NLRB acted wrongly in issuing the complaint against Boeing
because employers have a free-speech right. This is a common misperception, but it is not
correct.
Section 8(c) of the NLRA says: The expressing of any views, argument, or opinion, or the
dissemination thereof, whether in written, printed, graphic, or visual form, shall not constitute or
be evidence of an unfair labor practice under any of the provisions of this Act, if such expression
contains no threat of reprisal or force or promise of benefit.
In other words, section 8(c) says nothing about protecting free speech. All it does is create a safe
harbor for speech, as long as that speech does not threaten reprisals or force or promise benefits.
Boeings speech was not protected by 8(c) because it threatened reprisals against employees for
exercising their protected rights.

Boeing is Wrong, the NLRB Is Right
The recent complaint filed by the National Labor Relations Board's general counsel
against Boeing's efforts to relocate its production facility from Washington state to South
Carolina has unleashed a flurry of anger among big business interests ("The White
House vs. Boeing: A Tennessee Tale" by Sen. Lamar Alexander, op-ed, April 26).
This outrage should instead be redirected at Boeing for explicitly and egregiously
breaking the law. It is illegal to retaliate against employees exercising their rights to form
a union or strike, and that is exactly what the company did. The complaint issued was
based on public comments from Boeing executives making clear their reasons for
relocation: to avoid strikes by their employees.
The general counsel, in exercising his sworn duty to uphold the National Labor
Relations Act, had no choice but to issue a complaint against the company's violation.
To not have done so would send the wrong signal to both American employers and
workersthat it's OK to flagrantly break our labor laws.

Washington's actions have assaulted the capitalist principles that have sustained America's
competitiveness since it became the world's largest economy nearly 140 years ago.
By J I M M C N E R N E Y
Deep into the recent recession, Boeing decided to invest more than $1 billion in a new factory in South
Carolina. Surging global demand for our innovative, new 787 Dreamliner exceeded what we could build
on one production line and we needed to open another.
This was good news for Boeing and for the economy. The new jetliner assembly plant would be the first
one built in the U.S. in 40 years. It would create new American jobs at a time when most employers are
hunkered down. It would expand the domestic footprint of the nation's leading exporter and make it more
competitive against emerging plane makers from China, Russia and elsewhere. And it would bring hope
to a state burdened by double-digit unemploymentwith the construction phase alone estimated to
create more than 9,000 total jobs.
Eighteen months later, a North Charleston swamp has been transformed into a state-of-the-art, green-
energy powered, 1.2 million square-foot airplane assembly plant. One thousand new workers are hired
and being trained to start building planes in July.
It is an American industrial success story by every measure. W ith 9% unemployment nationwide, we need
more of themand soon.
Yet the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) believes it was a mistake and that our actions were
unlawful. It claims we improperly transferred existing work, and that our decision reflected "animus" and
constituted "retaliation" against union-represented employees in Washington state. Its remedy: Reverse
course, Boeing, and build the assembly line where we tell you to build it.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Boeing employees work on the 787 Dreamliner at the North Charleston, S.C., facility.
The NLRB is wrong and has far overreached its authority. Its action is a fundamental assault on the
capitalist principles that have sustained America's competitiveness since it became the world's largest
economy nearly 140 years ago. We've made a rational, legal business decision about the allocation of our
capital and the placement of new work within the U.S. We're confident the federal courts will reject the
claim, but only after a significant and unnecessary expense to taxpayers.
NLRB-FOIA-00002232
More worrisome, though, are the potential implications of such brazen regulatory activism on the U.S.
manufacturing base and long-term job creation. The NLRB's overreach could accelerate the overseas
flight of good, middle-class American jobs.
Contrary to the NLRB's claim, our decision to expand in South Carolina resulted from an objective
analysis of the same factors we use in every site selection. W e considered locations in several states but
narrowed the choice to either North Charleston (where sections of the 787 are built already) or Everett,
Wash., which won the initial 787 assembly line in 2003.
Our union contracts expressly permit us to locate new work at our discretion. However, we viewed Everett
as an attractive option and engaged voluntarily in talks with union officials to see if we could make the
business case work. Among the considerations we sought were a long-term "no-strike clause" that would
ensure production stability for our customers, and a wage and benefit growth trajectory that would help in
our cost battle against Airbus and other state-sponsored competitors.
Despite months of effort, no agreement was reached. Union leaders couldn't meet expectations on our
key issues, and we couldn't accept their demands that we remain neutral in all union-organizing
campaigns and essentially guarantee to build every future Boeing airplane in the Puget Sound area. In
October 2009, we made the Charleston selection.
Important to our case is the basic fact that no existing work is being transferred to South Carolina, and not
a single union member in Washington has been adversely affected by this decision. In fact, we've since
added more than 2,000 union jobs there, and the hiring continues. The 787 production line in Everett has
a planned capacity of seven airplanes per month. The line in Charleston will build three additional
airplanes to reach our 10-per-month capacity plan. Production of the new U.S. Air Force aerial refueling
tanker will sustain and grow union jobs in Everett, too.
Before and after the selection, we spoke openly to employees and investors about our competitive
realities and the business considerations of the decision. The NLRB now is selectively quoting and
mischaracterizing those comments in an attempt to bolster its case. This is a distressing signal from one
arm of the government when others are pushing for greater openness and transparency in corporate
decision making.
It is no secret that over the years Boeing and union leaders have struggled to find the right way to work
together. I don't blame that all on the union, or all on the company. Both sides are working to improve that
dynamic, which is also a top concern for customers. Virgin Atlantic founder Richard Branson put it this
way following the 2008 machinists' strike that shut down assembly for eight weeks: "If union leaders and
management can't get their act together to avoid strikes, we're not going to come back here again. We're
already thinking, 'Would we ever risk putting another order with Boeing?' It's that serious."
Despite the ups-and-downs, we hold no animus toward union members, and we have never sought to
threaten or punish them for exercising their rights, as the NLRB claims. To the contrary, union members
are part of our company's fabric and key to our success. About 40% of our 155,000 U.S. employees are
represented by unionsa ratio unchanged since 2003.
Nor are we making a mass exodus to right-to-work states that forbid compulsory union membership. W e
have a sizable presence in 34 states; half are unionized and half are right-to-work. We make decisions on
work placement based on business principlesnot out of emotion or spite. For example, last year we
added new manufacturing facilities in Illinois and Montana. One work force is union-represented, the
other is not. Both decisions made business sense.
The world the NLRB wants to create with its complaint would effectively prevent all companies from
placing new plants in right-to-work states if they have existing plants in unionized states. But as an
unintended consequence, forward-thinking CEOs also would be reluctant to place new plants in unionized
stateslest they be forever restricted from placing future plants elsewhere across the country.

U.S. tax and regulatory policies already make it more attractive for many companies to build new
manufacturing capacity overseas. That's something the administration has said it wants to change and is
taking steps to address. It appears that message hasn't made it to the front offices of the NLRB.
