Ironically the Supreme Court further watered down what regulatory actions the NLRB can take against companies retaliating against unionizing workers just a couple of days ago.
US law is actually pretty good as far as worker’s rights are concerned. The problem is that successive U.S. administrations (both Democratic and Republican) have failed to enforce the law. The Biden administration has been a welcome exception in this regard.
The other, bigger, problem is that US law is no longer decided in the legislature and is being unilaterally rewritten by the Supreme Court which is quite decidedly anti union and has been rolling back all sorts of protections which are clearly enshrined in law but have been “interpreted” (in quotes because now they don’t even pretend to be interpreting the text differently) out of it by the Supreme Court.
