this amendment simply harm onizes nlrb practice with the national standards used in our court system. while i urge the adoption of this amendment, the underlying bill before us today is nothing more than another attempt by the majority to distract the public from the most important issue facing our country, job creation. because my colleagues on the other side of the aisle apparently lack any plan to get unemployed americans working again, they are relying on the false specter of powerful unions and burdensome regulations as the boogeymen in the american labor market. however, a recent national poll by the bureau of labor statistics shows that only .2% of employers cite government regulations and interference as their reason for laying off employees. .2%. the main reason cited for layoffs is lack of demand. we need real solutions to create american jobs, not phony distractions that attempt to steer the conversation to problems that don't exist. while current law allows union elections to proceed while requests for full board review are considered, h.r. 3094 mandates that elections be
