Earlier this week, Tesla filed a whopping 166 exceptions to the NLRB administrative law judge’s decision (ALJD) finding that Elon Musk’s company unlawfully interfered with employee union organizing in 2017 and 2018; and ordering that Musk be present while a notice is read to the company’s workers explaining their rights to unionize. Requiring Musk to face the workers whose rights his company violated is an unusual remedy reserved for only the most extreme, knuckle dragging union haters. It is a good bet, though, that the Trump Board - which will rule on Musk’s exceptions - will come to his rescue, grant most if not all of the exceptions, and save Musk from having to admit his, and his company’s, violations of the law to a mass meeting of workers. (The Board’s link to The official documents in this case, including the ALJD, Tesla’s Exceptions, and Tesla’s Brief in Support of Exceptions, is here).
