NLRB Ratifies Agency Actions Following Supreme Court’s Noel Canning Decision

On July 18, 2014, the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”) ratified all administrative, personnel, and procurement actions approved and/or taken by the Board between January 4, 2012 and August 5, 2013.  This ratification follows the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in NLRB v. Noel Canning that invalidated NLRB actions during that time period because President Obama impermissibly appointed Board members in January 2012.
