Wash. Times: “Pro-Union Thugs” At NLRB Filed “Outrageous Complaint” Against Boeing

In a May 25 editorial, The Washington Times wrote that Rep. Tim Scott (R-SC) “introduced legislation to protect a Boeing 787 Dreamliner production plant in his South Carolina district from the outrageous complaint filed by pro-union thugs at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).” In fact, as Media Matters has noted, labor law experts say that if the allegations against Boeing are true, the NLRB has presented a “classic case” of labor law violations.

From the Times editorial, headlined, “Obama versus Boeing; House GOP takes aim at job-killing regulators”:

House Republicans are fighting back against President Obama's misuse of administrative power to punish right-to-work states. On Tuesday, Rep. Tim Scott introduced legislation to protect a Boeing 787 Dreamliner production plant in his South Carolina district from the outrageous complaint filed by pro-union thugs at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The agency wants to force the airline manufacturer to close up operations in Charleston and move the jobs to Puget Sound, where the labor bosses reign, because setting up in South Carolina was allegedly an example of “unfair labor practices.”
