The Revolving Anti-Union Door

You often hear about legislators who leave their positions only to end up lobbying for the very same causes in some K street lobbying firm. Of course that career path isn't limited to members of Congress.  Today  AFL-CIO Now reports that former chair of the National Labor Relations Board, Robert Battista, who led the decision to take away the protections of the National Labor Relations Act from graduate employees in private universities, has joined one of the most notorious anti-union law firms in the country.  More evidence that the Bush NLRB should have been renamed the National Management Rights Expansion Board if they wanted to accurately reflect their mission for the last seven years.
