JOHN HINES: And with us is Mark Mix, the president of the National Right to Work Foundation. And Mr. Mix, I believe that Jennifer Abruzzo is the new attorney for the National Labor Relations Board, and she has put out a memo in which she has outlined a plan to roll back the clock and what has been called the most dramatic changes to labor law in the last 40 years with this Biden administration.
