Supreme Court Victory for LIUNA National Guard Techs

Washington, D.C. (May 18, 2023) – Brent Booker, General President of LIUNA – the Laborers’ International Union of North America – made the following statement today:

LIUNA is celebrating today’s Supreme Court decision in Ohio Adjutant General v. FLRA, which upheld the union rights of LIUNA Local 1776 members and thousands of our fellow union brothers and sisters. The 7-2 decision allows dual-status technicians of State National Guards to continue collective bargaining under the federal-employee statutes.

 

LIUNA and the AFL-CIO jointly submitted an amicus brief to the court arguing for protecting the union rights of dual-status technicians and we are encouraged that justice has been served.
