Scoop: Democrats at risk of controlling the National Labor Relations Board until 2026
Donald Trump Jr. told the Washington Reporter that Senate Republicans need to hold their ground on radical Biden nominees.
The current Democratic chair of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), Lauren McFerran, could be reconfirmed during the lame duck Congress, which would allow her to remain at her post until 2026.
“Hunter Biden’s pardon should be the death rattle of Joe Biden’s presidency,” Tom Hebert, Americans for Tax Reform’s (ATR) Director of Competition and Regulatory Policy, told the Washington Reporter. “Biden doesn’t get any more chances to shape his legacy, and that includes putting Donald Trump’s NLRB in Democrat control until August 2026. Senate Republicans need to show up and block Biden and Chuck Schumer from hijacking the NLRB.”
Donald Trump, Jr. recently told the Reporter that Senate Republicans need to hold the line against Biden’s radical nominees such as McFerran, who has waged war on Elon Musk for years, during the lame duck Congress.
Under McFerran’s tenure at the NLRB, the organization has ruled time after time against companies like Musk’s Tesla, with critics alleging that this reeks of persecution. In one instance, the NLRB under McFerran even ordered Musk to delete a tweet.
