House Vote #869; Passed with a 235-188 vote. November 30, 2011The National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB) proposed rule foraccelerated union elections that would drastically shorten the timeemployers have to present their case as well as the time for employeesto ask questions and make an educated vote. Prior to the rule beingdelayed indefinitely by the U.S. District Court for the District ofColumbia, the House brought this bill to the floor.

IEC’s Position: Supported H.R. 3094

to Representation Election Procedures(S.J. Res. 36)Senate Vote #68; Failed with a 45-54 vote. April 24, 2012This joint resolution would negate a rule from the National LaborRelations Board's (NLRB) that accelerated union elections, whichwould drastically shorten the time employers have to present theircase as well as the time for employees to ask questions and make aneducated vote. Prior to the rule being delayed indefinitely by theU.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, the Senate broughtthis resolution to the floor to prevent the rule from taking effect.
