"The National Labor Relations Board's expanded scrutiny of companies that move jobs away from union shops is bringing the partisan conflict over labor policy back to a boil.

The NLRB, controlled by Obama administration appointees, has alleged that Boeing Co. retaliated against union workers in Washington state by adding a nonunion plant in South Carolina to assemble additional 787 Dreamliner planes. The agency is trying to force the company to move the work to Washington, where Dreamliners are already made; Boeing says the allegations are groundless."
