After nearly a decade of unchecked assaults on American business, it looks as if union friendly regulation will be coming to an end under President-Elect Trump’s tenure. Mr. Trump’s twitter attack on a union official for doing a “terrible job representing workers” and his appointment of CKE Restaurants chief executive Andrew Puzde as his labor secretary have indicated that he does not intend to favor unions. Puzde, who has been critical of President Obama’s labor initiatives and who has fought against the $15 minimum wage, has left labor leaders concerned for their futures. President-Elect Trump will also be filling two of the five spots on the National Labor Relations Board during his time in the White House.
