Rep. Denny Rehberg is to be commended for looking out for taxpayers and all working Americans through key provisions in the 2012 Labor, Health and Human Services (LHHS) funding bill currently before Congress.

While legislation affecting so many homes, workplaces, and employees is necessarily complex, the LHHS bill from Rep. Rehberg has responsibly used the appropriations process to prevent unnecessarily and economically crippling actions by the National Labor Relations Board and efforts by the Department of Labor to interfere with employers’ access to legal counsel and other advice.
For these efforts and recognizing the importance of protecting employees and employers from Big Labor’s job-killing agenda, we thank Rep. Rehberg.
