Manchin and Sinema Sabotage Biden, Hand Labor Board to Trump
Senators Sinema and Manchin’s votes against Lauren McFerran’s NLRB nomination blocked Democrats from maintaining control of the board, handing a three-member majority to Republicans. This decision, coupled with their past actions thwarting Democratic legislative agendas, aligns with their history of opposing worker rights and favoring corporate interests. Their votes effectively pave the way for a potential rollback of worker protections under the incoming Trump administration. Both senators’ future endeavors are uncertain, but their past actions suggest potential lucrative opportunities in the private sector.
