Manchin and Sinema Block Democratic NLRB Majority Bid
TL;DR Summary
Senate Republicans, with the help of Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin, blocked a Democratic effort led by Chuck Schumer to secure a majority on the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) during Trump's presidency. The vote was crucial for maintaining a Democratic 3-2 majority on the board, which plays a key role in labor disputes. Schumer's attempt failed as both Sinema and Manchin voted 'No,' leaving the vote tied and preventing Vice President Harris from breaking it.
