TEAMSTERS UNION OPPOSES NOMINATION OF CRYSTAL CAREY AS NLRB GENERAL COUNSEL
Union-Busting Corporate Attorney Poses Serious Threat to Workers
WASHINGTON, March 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The International Brotherhood of Teamsters opposes the recent nomination of union-busting attorney Crystal Carey to serve as the next general counsel of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
"As the General President of the Teamsters Union, I've always promised to call balls and strikes, and to be straightforward with our 1.3 million members - on contracts, organizing campaigns, and politics," said Teamsters General President Sean M. O'Brien. "This is a strike that must be called. Crystal Carey is a bad choice for the National Labor Relations Board. Carey has spent her entire professional career backing Big Business to the detriment of working people. On behalf of her corrupt corporate clients, she wants to decimate labor unions and destroy American families - and she has no place serving as NLRB general counsel."
Carey is a partner at Morgan Lewis, one of the most notorious union-busting law firms in America. Representing mega-corporations like Amazon and Apple, she spearheaded efforts to gut workers' rights across the country, including by urging the Supreme Court to declare the NLRB unconstitutional.
At Morgan Lewis, Carey has advocated for captive audience meetings and defended corporations that exploit "independent contractors." She has advised companies on how to bust unions and supported firms that try to avoid responsibility for their workers by abusing joint-employer schemes.
"Why should someone who actively believes the NLRB is unconstitutional be allowed to serve as its general counsel?" O'Brien said.
