Chairman WALBERG. A quorum being present, the Subcommittee on Health, Employment, Labor, and Pensions will come to order. Good morning, and welcome to today’s Subcommittee hearing. I would like to thank our panel of witnesses and our members for joining today’s important discussion. Today, we will examine the need to modernize certain federal workplace laws, including updates to policies within the National Labor Relations Act to strengthen the rights of workers to make free and informed decisions about whether they want to join or re- main associated with a union.

Worker centers were designed to be a resource in low-income communities. However, current ambiguities in the law have al- lowed them to engage in direct negotiations with employers on be- half of employees. The insufficient reporting standards currently in place limit the amount of information available to the Department of Labor and the public on just how many of these organizations currently exist and the types of activities they engage in with em- ployers and employees. Enacted in 1935—that is before I was born; I want you to know that. [Laughter.] Chairman WALBERG. I would ask my colleagues to help me out on that one. Long before, okay. The NLRA guarantees most private-sector employees the right to organize and bargain collectively with their employers through rep- resentatives of their choosing, or to simply refrain from such activi- ties. While this remains the mission of the NLRA, the law is show- ing its age. Many of the law’s key provisions have not been updated since 1947, and it may be time to revisit the law to meet the needs of our 21st century workforce. Additionally, the National Labor Relations Board, created through the NLRA, was designed to act as a neutral arbitrator to ensure a level

  • Presidential Fatigue Hits Gen Z Users, Shows Oath's News Data
    Presidential Fatigue Hits Gen Z Users, Shows Oath’s News Data By [oath News Team] -- TBC Source: oath News Analytics - Longitudinal Trends across Generation X, Millennial, and Generation Z The common assumption is that anyone engaged in current events today is focused on U.S. politics, but the data shows that it actually depends on your generation. Gen Z is focused on a diverse array of issues and are largely isolated from the obsessive focus on national politics seen in other generations. Since they are the next generation to come online as voters (beginning in 2018 for the oldest Gen Zers), should we be concerned for the next election? Oath News data on longitudinal trends across Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z show that while the November 8th presidential election drew people from all age groups on presidential topics, trends for Gen X and Millennial are also similar. Gen Z has the most diverse interest over time and was the only group with significant discussion in international politics and society related stories. The US elections, Brexit, France’s landmark presidential election, and the unfortunate terrorist attacks over the past year prompted us to dig deeper into our news platform, to see how these events may have impacted our communities. This analysis was conducted through a review of over 100 million comments, of which 3 million were analyzed to define the top 10 trending US hosted articles per month ranked by total comments. Included in this analysis were comments generated within the flagship mobile app Newsroom iOS and Android, and across our biggest news platforms Yahoo.com and Yahoo News.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2017 Remarks at a "Make America Great Again Rally" in Cedar Rapids, Iowa June 21, 2017 Audience members. U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! The President. Thank you, everybody. It is great to be back in the incredible, beautiful, great State of Iowa, home of the greatest wrestlers in the world, including our friend, Dan Gable. Some of the great, great wrestlers of the world, right? We love those wrestlers. It's always terrific to be able to leave that Washington swamp and spend time with the truly hard-working people. We call them American patriots, amazing people. I want to also extend our congratulations this evening to Karen Handel of Georgia. And we can't forget Ralph Norman in South Carolina. He called me, and I called him. He said, you know, last night I felt like the forgotten man. But he won, and he won really beautifully, even though most people—a lot of people didn't show up because they thought he was going to win by so much. It's always dangerous to have those big leads. But he won very easily, and he is a terrific guy. And I'll tell you what, Karen is going to be really incredible. She is going to be joining some wonderful people and doing some wonderful work, including major, major tax cuts and health care and lots of things. Going to be reducing crime, and we're securing that Second Amendment. I told you about that. And that looks like it's in good shape with Judge Gorsuch.

Maryland Law Review VOLUME IX WINTR, 1948 NUMB3R 1 THE TAFF.HARTLEY ACT AND COLLECTIVE BARGAINING By JEROME S. WoHLmuTH,* and RHODA P. KRUPKA** INTRODUCTION. The Labor-Management Relations Act of 1947,1 more popularly known as the Taft-Hartley Act became law on June 23, 1947. It represents a sweeping departure from the philosophy of the Wagner Act,2 which it amends. The latter Act was conceived on the principle that the basic cause of industrial disputes stemmed from the inequality of bargaining power between employees who do not possess full freedom of association or actual liberty of contract and employers who fail to recognize and bargain with the representatives of the majority of their employees. There- fore, the Wagner Act proscribed various familiar unfair labor practices of employers and provided an easily acces- sible and simple election system to prove a union's majority in an appropriate bargaining unit to the end that free col- lective bargaining might take place over the terms and conditions of employment.
