On Friday, the Supreme Court held in Trump v. CASA that universal injunctions “likely exceed the equitable authority that […]

Dealing with the Likely Demise of Humphrey’s Executor

Jun 25, 2025 Samuel Estreicher, G. Roger King and David Sherwyn

The future of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB or Board), the venerable agency that since 1935 has been the exclusive investigation, enforcement, and adjudicatory body under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA or Act), is in doubt. As of this writing, it seems likely, that perhaps sometime in fall 2025 or spring 2026, the […]

Justice Jackson Shows Us How to Read a Statute

Jun 24, 2025 Andrew Strom

The longer Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson serves on the Supreme Court, the more she builds the case that her appointment to the Court may be Joe Biden’s greatest accomplishment.

The NLRB’s Existence is at Stake

May 22, 2025 Andrew Strom

It seems increasing likely that Gwynne Wilcox’s lawsuit challenging Donald Trump’s attempt to fire her in the middle of her five-year term as a Member of the National Labor Relations Board will, one way or the other, result in the end of the NLRB as we have known it.

How the Supreme Court Could Save the FLSA Collective Action

May 8, 2025 Ted Parker

OnLabor

Law. Workers. Organizing.

OnLabor is a blog devoted to workers, unions, and their politics. We interpret our subject broadly to include the current crisis in the traditional union movement (why union decline is happening and what it means for our society); the new and contested forms of worker organization that are filling the labor union gap; how work ought to be structured and managed; how workers ought to be represented and compensated; and the appropriate role of government — all three branches — in each of these issues.
