Preliminary note
In September 2017, William J. Emanuel1 was confirmed as the newest member of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), marking the transition from Democratic to Republican majority control of the NLRB. President Trump has nominated Janet Dhillon to be chair of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). In November 2017, Peter Robb was confirmed by the Senate as the NLRB's incoming general counsel following his nomination by President Trump.
Commentators have suggested that the majority-Republican-controlled NLRB may revisit the NLRB's effort to classify franchisors as co-employers with their franchisees (the McDonald's case). Several of former President Obama's executive orders have been rescinded, including:
Executive Order 13673 [Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces] on March 27,
