Updated – Breaking News: Obama makes recess appointment of Craig Becker to the NLRB

A few weeks ago I asked, “Who is Craig Becker and why should you care?” It looks like we are all about to find out. President Obama has made Mr. Becker a recess appointment to the NLRB, along with another Democratic nominee. The lone Republican nominee has been left on the sidelines.
