Editorial: Becker A Bad Fit for Top Labor Board

The Arkansas News weighs in against the nomination of Craig Becker, a top lawyer for the AFL-CIO and SEIU, to join the National Labor Relations Board:

Presidents deserve wide latitude in filling executive branch positions. But given his far-left philosophical leanings, the possibility that Mr. Becker would use the post to help organized labor impose its agenda through the back door without congressional consent is a real concern.

Mr. Becker’s nomination will likely come up as soon as this week. If they stick together, Senate Republicans have the ability to ensure it’s DOA — and that’s precisely what they should do.

Agreed!
