1 week agoState Makes Failed Attempt To Protect Workers Since Trump's NLRB Won't - Above the Law

SERA historically covered agricultural and non-employee contractors left unprotected by the NLRA. In September, New York expanded SERA to cover workers traditionally under federal jurisdiction - explicitly citing the Trump administration's decision to leave the NLRB without a quorum.
