On February 4, 2022, he signed an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2022\/02\/03\/fact-sheet-president-biden-signs-executive-order-to-boost-quality-of-federal-construction-projects\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">executive order<\/a> requiring the use of project labor agreements (PLAs) on federal construction projects above $35 million, which will impact over 200,000 workers on federal construction projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The executive order was a win for taxpayers, workers, and unions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cProject labor agreements ensure highly skilled professionals earning good wages and great benefits are put to work rebuilding our highways, rails, dams, bridges, ports and other critical infrastructure,\u201d says <a href=\"https:\/\/maineaflcio.org\/news\/executive-order-ensures-good-quality-union-construction-jobs-federal-construction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cynthia Phinney<\/a>, president of the Maine AFL-CIO. \u201cWe applaud this decision to raise wages and strengthen workers\u2019 rights by supporting the creation of quality, local, union jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Labor Task Force Issues Recommendations for Federal Worker Unionizing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On February 7, 2022, The White House Task Force on Worker Organizing and Empowerment presented President Biden with 70 recommendations, which he approved for implementation, to promote organizing and collective bargaining by federal workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the recommendations in the report, as outlined by <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/wireStory\/biden-task-force-releasing-report-strengthen-labor-unions-82718115\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Josh Boak<\/a>, White House reporter at The Associated Press, include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Allowing union organizers to talk to employees on federal property.<\/li><li>Setting guidelines for federal grants to foster union jobs.<\/li><li>Banning federal contract dollars from being spent on anti-union activities.<\/li><li>Improving workers\u2019 awareness of their rights to unionize.<\/li><li>Enforcing current labor laws.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If implemented as outlined, the recommendations have the potential to make it easier for nearly 300,000 federal government employees to organize. \u201cI think this could be a game changer, to have the power of the federal government examining itself and how its practices can be utilized to advance worker organizing,\u201d says AFL-CIO President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/white-house-releases-labor-report-seeking-boost-union-membership-2022-02-07\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Liz Shuler<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The president has charged the task force with submitting a follow-up report in six months. It will detail how federal agencies are implementing the recommendations and put forth any new proposals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/uniontrack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image2-1.jpg\" alt=\"portrait of smiling construction workers; federal labor news concept\" class=\"wp-image-3035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uniontrack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image2-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/uniontrack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image2-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/uniontrack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image2-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/uniontrack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image2-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Congress and the Supreme Court Address Forced Arbitration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Forced arbitration is an ongoing workers\u2019 rights issue that is once again being addressed in Congress and the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epi.org\/press\/epi-applauds-the-introduction-of-the-fair-act\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Margaret Poydock and Heidi Shierholz<\/a>, policy analyst and president at the Economic Policy Institute (EPI), respectively, explain, \u201cUnder current law, employers are allowed to require workers to sign arbitration agreements to resolve workplace disputes.\u201d Such agreements prevent workers from suing their employers for any workplace injustices such as poor working conditions and wage theft and, instead, require them to resolve issues in private meetings. As Poydock and Shierholz note, those meetings usually favor the employer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, data from the National Employment Law Project shows that in 2019, U.S. workers earning less than $13 per hour lost more than $9.27 billion in forced arbitration. Those arbitration requirements \u201chave effectively prevented these workers from ever recovering their stolen wages,\u201d write attorneys <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nelp.org\/publication\/forced-arbitration-cost-workers-in-low-paid-jobs-9-2-billion-in-stolen-wages-in-2019\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hugh Baran and Elisabeth Campbell<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an attempt to end forced arbitration, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/bill\/117th-congress\/house-bill\/963\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Forced Arbitration Injustice Repeal (FAIR) Act<\/a> in March 2022. If passed by the Senate and signed by the president, the law would ban mandatory arbitration agreements and allow employees to sue their employers in court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Supreme Court is also confronting the issue this month in three different cases, as outlined by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vox.com\/2022\/3\/14\/22969321\/supreme-court-forced-arbitration-southwest-airlines-saxon-circuit-city-adams\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ian Millhiser<\/a>, senior correspondent at Vox. Millhiser explains that with one case in particular, Southwest Airlines Co. v. Saxon, the court will be revisiting The Federal Arbitration Act of 1925 that defines which employees are subject to forced arbitration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All indications thus far point to a more worker-friendly federal government and, possibly, Supreme Court. With these wins, workers are bolstered with more power to organize and stand up for themselves in the workplace. As union leaders look to build memberships in this more pro-union environment, a tool like <a href=\"https:\/\/uniontrack.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UnionTrack ENGAGE<\/a> can help them stay connected and engaged with members and organizers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><small><em>Images by: mesutdogan\/\u00a9123RF.com,
