Supporting Kash Patel for FBI Director: A Vision for Reform, Integrity, and Security Having worked extensively in law enforcement, including high-stakes federal investigations and operations, I’ve seen the complexities and challenges federal agencies face. With my experience working on security matters and collaborating with federal and state agencies, I’m confident that Kash Patel is the right leader to tackle the pressing issues within the FBI and restore its credibility. The FBI is at a crossroads. Political bias, lack of transparency, and operational inconsistencies have led to a growing mistrust of the agency. The Bureau needs a transformative leader—someone with the vision, integrity, and fortitude to clean up the mess and restore public confidence. That leader is Kash Patel. Kash Patel’s background in law enforcement, intelligence, and national security gives him the unique expertise needed to address these systemic issues. As a former federal prosecutor and Chief of Staff at the Department of Defense, Patel has demonstrated his ability to navigate high-pressure situations while upholding the rule of law and safeguarding national security. What truly sets Kash Patel apart is his unwavering commitment to fairness and accountability. He has shown time and again that he is not afraid to challenge the status quo, even when it involves confronting deep-rooted issues within government agencies. Patel’s approach is centered on putting the Constitution and the American people first—prioritizing integrity over political agendas. I understand the importance of strong leadership at the helm of the FBI. The Director must be someone who can lead with transparency, uphold the highest standards of professionalism, and ensure the agency operates without bias. Kash Patel is that leader. His track record of promoting accountability and his steadfast dedication to justice make him the ideal candidate to reform the FBI and rebuild its reputation. The FBI needs a Director who will inspire agents to maintain the highest ethical standards while serving the public. Kash Patel is that individual. Under his leadership, I believe the Bureau will regain the public’s trust and effectively carry out its critical mission of safeguarding justice. It’s time for a change, and Kash Patel is the leader we need. Let’s support a future where the FBI is once again an agency the American people can trust.

Thanks to Law360 for publishing this deep-dive into deauthorization, the rarely utilized #NLRA process that's been around almost 80 years. Trecia Moore and I discuss some history, provide practical guidance for employees and employers, and dig into some procedural oddities - like how a union security clause expires when the CBA expires (foreclosing option to deauthorize) while the employer's obligation to continue to deduct dues under that same clause continues. #NLRB #laborlaw

I have been working in this #laborlaw space for twenty four years and I am always learning and relearning. Thanks to #Law360 for publishing this deep-dive into deauthorization elections, the rarely utilized #NLRA process that's been around almost 80 years. My co-worker and friend Megann McManus and I discuss history, provide practical guidance for employees and employers considering deauthorization, and dig into some procedural oddities - like how a union security clause expires when the CBA expires (foreclosing the option to deauthorize) while the employer's obligation to continue to deduct dues under that same clause continues.
