                       NLRB CONFLICT OF INTEREST

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from 
North Carolina (Ms. Foxx) for 5 minutes.
  Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, what is happening at the National Labor 
Relations Board, NLRB, is so rotten it stinks.
  Under Democrat leadership, the NLRB has a history of bias and 
overreach. President Biden fired the Senate-confirmed general counsel 
on his first day in office, and now the Biden board is dodging ethics 
rules.
  NLRB Democrats are refusing to follow conflict of interest standards 
that were weaponized by Democrats during the Trump administration. This 
is blatant hypocrisy and threatens the integrity of the board.
  How can NLRB members Gwynne Wilcox and David Prouty be conscientious 
arbiters on the very policies they fought against as union employees? 
And how can we expect board members with close ties to union activists 
to be unbiased when it comes to big labor cases?
  Is there anything NLRB Democrats won't do to advance the interests of 
big labor at the expense of American workers? It is a shame what it is 
doing.
