Obama Recess Appointee Refuses to Recuse Himself in Twelve of Thirteen Cases Despite Clear Bias, Conflicts of Interest<\/a><\/h2>\n

New federal labor board member and former SEIU union lawyer Craig Becker thumbs his nose at much-touted Obama ethics policy<\/h3>\n

\nWashington, DC (June 9, 2010)<\/b> \u2013 Craig Becker, President Barack Obama\u2019s controversial recess appointee to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), responded this week to 13 motions for his recusal filed by National Right to Work Foundation attorneys in cases pending before the Board.\n<\/p>\n

\nAfter President Obama installed Becker on the NLRB in late March, Foundation attorneys quickly filed recusal motions in all Foundation-supported cases due to Becker\u2019s extreme level of hostility against the Foundation and its legal arguments for workers\u2019 rights, even when the NLRB or United States Supreme Court have agreed and ruled against unions for their abusive practices. Additionally, some of the cases directly involve affiliates of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), Becker\u2019s employer up to the date of his recess appointment.\n<\/p>\n

\nBut Becker has only agreed to recuse himself in Dana Corp<\/i>., one pending case in which Becker\u2019s conflict of interest was so great even he could not ignore it. In that case, Foundation attorneys filed unfair labor practice charges against an employer and the United Auto Workers (UAW) union for illegal pre-recognition bargaining. In exchange for active company assistance during a coercive card check organizing campaign, UAW union officials made explicit concessions as to workers\u2019 wages and benefits. Becker himself coauthored a joint brief for the UAW and AFL-CIO union hierarchy in that case.\n<\/p>\n
