Yesterday, the NLRBU learned that DOGE has unilaterally cancelled the Milwaukee office’s lease a year early, without notice. The lease will now expire in August 2025.

DOGE has not provided the NLRB with any alternative for Milwaukee agents to perform their work.

The Milwaukee NLRB office currently operates out of a privately-owned building. It is the NLRBU’s understand that there is no space available for the Agency in Milwaukee’s federal building. DOGE, in all of its haste, is flirting with ending labor law enforcement in Wisconsin.

The Milwaukee NLRB office has seen a 17% uptick in case filings over the last decade, at a time that the Agency’s field offices have on average lost 40% of their staffs. Board Agents are drowning in work while DOGE is literally removing the roofs from over their heads.

It should go without saying, but this is comically inconsistent with the White House’s illegal return-to-work order that is being instituted on March 31, in violation of our Union’s contract with the Agency. Where exactly is DOGE proposing that Milwaukee agents work from?!

Despite the general chaos of the federal government and a likely years-long hiring freeze, Board Agents are continuing to perform mission-critical work to the best of their abilities. But stunts like these needlessly imperil the labor rights of Wisconsin workers.

They don’t expect the NLRB to even exist after the Supreme Court rules the NLRA is actually unconstitutional!
