It occasionally comes as a shock to those involved in labor controversies that many of the employees employed by the National Labor Relations Board, the “neutral” agency charged with enforcing the National Labor Relations Act, are themselves members of a union—aptly named the National Labor Relations Board Union.
In fact, every so often disputes will arise between the NLRB and its unionized staff.
