A Gov’t Contractor’s Guide To White House Pro-Union Report

Nathan Reilly, Damien Specht, and Andrew Turnbull authored an article for Law360 examining the immediate impact of the White House Task Force on Worker Organizing and Empowerment’s report, which sets forth extensive recommendations relating to worker organizing and collective bargaining rights for public and private sector employees.

They added: “As the report clearly explains, workers’ rights and labor enforcement are issues that touch every facet of the federal government and those that contract with it. The Biden administration plainly intends to use its authority in the realm of federal contracting to promote the pro-union policy goals and initiatives identified in the report and make good on Biden’s campaign promise to lead a pro-union government.”
