The National Labor Relations Board is suing Arizona, South Carolina, South Dakota and Utah for preventing workers from choosing to organize unions through the use of majority sign-up, or card check.
State constitutional amendments in those states bar the use of majority sign-up union organizing. The NLRB says they conflict with federal labor law and federal law trumps the states on this issue.
Right-wing, anti-labor groups pushed the amendments in these four state to advance their pro-corporate, anti-worker agenda.
Federal law gives workers the option of secret ballot elections or majority sign-up. These states are trying to take the majority sign-up card check right away from workers.
The NLRB says that right is protected by federal law.
Rightardia is happy to see the federal government going after these states. This would have never happened if a Republican was president.
The Supremacy Clause is a clause in the United States Constitution, Article VI, Clause 2.
This clause asserts and establishes the Constitution, the federal laws made in pursuance of the Constitution, and treaties made by the United States with foreign nations as the Supreme Law of the Land. According to Wikipedia:
The text of Article VI, Clause 2, establishes federal law as the highest form of law in the American legal system, both in the Federal courts and in all of the State courts, mandating that all state judges shall uphold them, even if there are state laws or state constitutions that conflict with the powers of the Federal government.
The word "shall" is used in the Constitution and in the language of the law, which makes it a necessity, a compulsion.
The states do not have any options in federal regulations when he verb "shall or will" are used. That's the way the Founders wanted it.
Of interest, the CSA constitution contained the same federal supremacy clause. If there is a conflict with the 10th amendment, guess who wins?
Article VI, Clause 2 of the Constitution reads:
This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding.
