Senate advances two Trump nominees to NLRB, nearing quorum and potential Republican control.
On October 9, 2025, the Senate HELP Committee advanced two of President Trump’s nominees to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), moving the board closer to regaining a quorum and potentially shifting to Republican control for the first time since 2021.
The NLRB has been unable to issue new decisions since March 2025 due to a lack of members.
A new majority could review key rulings, including the 2022 Thryv decision expanding employer liability for financial harms, and reconsider joint-employer standards, independent contractor classifications, and union election rules.
Legal uncertainty persists as federal circuits are divided on the scope of NLRB remedies.
Employers should prepare for potential changes and seek legal guidance, as the full impact depends on confirmation of the remaining nominee and future board actions.
