Subject: Breaking News: NLRB proposes election rule changes

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking changing union election rules. From the press release:

"The first amendment would amend the Board’s rules and regulations to eliminate the requirement that employers provide available personal email addresses and home and personal cellular telephone numbers of all eligible voters to the Regional Director and other parties during an election campaign...

"The Board also proposes an amendment providing for absentee ballots for employees who are on military leave...

"Public comments are invited on all aspects of the proposed rule and should be submitted within 60 days of the Notice’s publication in the Federal Register, either electronically to www.regulations.gov, or by mail or hand-delivery to Roxanne Rothschild, Executive Secretary, National Labor Relations Board, 1015 Half Street S.E., Washington, D.C. 20570-0001. Because of precautions in place due to COVID-19, the Board recommends that comments be submitted electronically or by mail rather than by hand delivery."
