The National Labor Relations Board and Higher Ed Unions during a Trump Presidency

There will be major changes in the Federal government that directly impact higher education, our workplace rights, and unions.

The second Trump presidency holds a lot of uncertainty for advocates of labor unions and academic freedom.  Although these issues are not grabbing press attention every day, they will impact our lives and it is critical that we understand how the administration and executive agencies affect our strategies and operations as a union. 

This presentation will cover the specifics of the National Labor Relations Board, its structure, some of how it operated under the first Trump Presidency, and how we can expect it to change.  Additionally, we will discuss the rights being threatened under the current board and wider Trump administration and how we can move forward as a union and grow our power without a sympathetic Presidential administration.
