EMERGENCY: Chuck Schumer is desperately trying to ram through Democrat activist Lauren McFerran for another term as chair of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), and this is a HUGE issue. If successful, we’ll have a Democrat-controlled NLRB for the first TWO YEARS of Trump’s presidency. This would allow McFerran to continue pushing a radical, pro-union agenda that could stifle businesses and affect millions of American workers.

McFerran’s past leadership has already been heavily criticized by conservatives. Her decisions, viewed as anti-business, have undermined employer free speech and secret ballot union elections. Schumer’s push to secure her confirmation is part of an attempt to solidify the Biden-Harris labor agenda, which heavily favors unions, and would prevent President Trump from appointing a Republican chair.
If McFerran is confirmed, the NLRB would maintain a Democrat majority until at least 2026, guaranteeing more pro-union rulings that could damage our economy. We cannot allow this to happen. We need EVERY GOP Senator to step up and block McFerran’s nomination. If her confirmation goes through, the damage to businesses, workers, and the broader economy could be irreversible.
This vote is a battle for the future of labor policy. The outcome will shape the direction of labor laws for years to come, and we must fight to ensure it doesn’t go in the wrong direction. The stakes couldn’t be higher—now’s the time for action.
