* In recent cases, the Bush-appointed National Labor Relations Board has taken away workers' protections and workers' rights, including the rights of disabled workers, temporary employees and graduate employees.

* This summer could bring more such decisions from the Bush Labor Board in cases collectively called 'Kentucky River'. These cases will serve to clarify issues left open by the Supreme Court case of NLRB v. Kentucky River Community Care.

* The 'Kentucky River' decisions could strip hundreds of thousands of workers of their rights under federal labor law. At issue is a revised definition of 'supervisor' which could potentially affect workers in a wide range of industries, including health care, building and construction, energy, broadcast and port shipping.
