A newly decided case, Cellco Partnership d/b/a Verizon Wireless , 365 NLRB No. 38 (Feb. 24, 2017), shows that the Obama‐appointed members of the National Labor Relations Board are still on the trail of commonplace employee handbook provisions that they can deem to be unfair labor practices. At the same time, the reasoning in dissent by the one Republican‐appointed member of the panel previews the likely reasoning about handbook rules that will characterize the majority once Trump appointees predominate on the NLRB.
