; House Gop Takes Aim at Job-Killing Regulators

Summary


House Republicans are fighting back against President Obama's misuse of administrative power to punish right-to-work states. On Tuesday, Rep. Tim Scott introduced legislation to protect a Boeing 787 Dreamliner production plant in his South Carolina district from the outrageous complaint filed by pro-union thugs at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The agency wants to force the airline manufacturer to close up operations in Charleston and move the jobs to Puget Sound, where the labor bosses reign, because setting up in South Carolina was allegedly an example of "unfair labor practices."

The Job Protection Act would, if enacted, clarify that federal law gives the NLRB no power to decide where any U.S. company should or should not do business. "For the NLRB to punish a company for locating in a right-to-work state is an abuse of federal executive power," Mr. Scott explained to The Washington Times' Emily Miller. "This administration has clearly overstepped its bounds through the inappropriate actions of an unelected regulatory board."
