Here (and only here
) I agree with Legion. The protections already in place are sufficient. What is not sufficient is interpretation and enforcement of those existing protections.
Hypothetically, if a very conservative "administration" were to take the White House and if that "administration" also saw fit to place and displace its cronies with very-conservative agendas into positions such as the National Labor Relations Board......and if those "administration" cronies made it clear they were going to side with management against Labor even when the plain language of the statute is impossible to be interpreted that way........then Labor would begin to feel as though it needs to modify statutes in order to restore a level playing field. In that hypothetical example, you'd have some very liberal legislation to deal with as a direct result of deliberately misinterpreting laws and attempting to cram a conservative agenda down industry's throat. So........you'd have the "administration" to blame for the repair jobs that get done to the statutes. Hypothetically.
