A federal judge on Thursday ruled that Trump illegally fired a member of the National Labor Relations Board in January, and ordered Gwynne Wilcox be reinstated. Judge Beryl Howell wrote, “A president who touts an image of himself as a ‘king’ or a ‘dictator,’ perhaps as his vision of effective leadership, fundamentally misapprehends the role under Article II of the U.S. Constitution.”
In related news, the nonprofit union-focused watchdog LaborLab is warning against Trump’s pick to head the Office of Labor-Management Standards. Elisabeth Messenger was previously the CEO of Americans for Fair Treatment, an anti-union advocacy group.
