Protecting American Jobs: Changes to Labor Law and Disputes

This act changes how disputes between employees and employers are handled. It limits the power of the national labor agency to create new rules and shifts some unfair labor practice cases to the courts. This means citizens may have direct access to courts for certain workplace issues, rather than relying solely on the agency.
Key points
The labor agency (NLRB) will only be able to create rules for its internal operations, not rules affecting employee or employer rights.
Cases involving unfair labor practices will be handled in civil courts, not by the labor agency.
Citizens will be able to file civil lawsuits directly for violations of their labor rights, instead of filing charges with the agency.
