Who was the head of the NLRB for both this case and the one it overturned? It smells of political decision making as the article points out it’s overturning a precedent from 2020 which itself was overturning previous precedent.
McFerran is now the chairman, and Kaplan is still on the board. Ring and Emmanuel were replaced by David Prouty and Gwynne Wilcox, respectively. Both have union backgrounds.
I can't seem to find the original case to see the board make up then.
