The U.S. Chamber filed a coalition amicus brief encouraging the Third Circuit to reaffirm that courts are obligated to conduct meaningful review of administrative subpoenas issued by the National Labor Relations Board. The brief explained that the subpoenas at issue, which the district court had found were unprecedented in breadth and almost entirely unrelated to the requesting union’s underlying unfair labor practice charges, are yet another example of the Board’s continuing efforts to contort settled law to expand union membership.
The Chamber filed this briefly jointly with the Coalition for a Democratic Workplace, National Association of Manufacturers, and the National Federation of Independent Business.
Mark L. Keenan and Robin S. Conrad of McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP served as co-counsel to the amici with the U.S. Chamber Litigation Center.
