KGIII Sweet 16 Matchup
Jennifer Abruzzo (NLRB)
vs.
Antony Blinken (State)
Move over NLRB, there’s a new General Counsel in town. National Labor Relations Board General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo used her four years in power to push for Board rulings that overturned decades of legal precedent and often infringed on key constitutional rights. Examples include violating due process rights by allowing for unionization without a secret election; chilling free speech by advocating for, and successfully obtaining a ban on meetings where employers present their views on the disadvantages of unionization; and due process and freedom of speech concerns presented by her efforts to ban non-compete agreements.
Disfavored speech? Blinken you’ll miss it. Blinken’s State Department funded the development, testing, and marketing of censorship technology used to suppress First Amendment-protected speech based on viewpoints expressed in their content. Dozens of agencies and some private-sector accomplices used Blinken’s censorship tools, which is why NCLA sued to stop one of the most egregious violations of the First Amendment’s guarantees of freedom of press and freedom of speech in American history.
