On the recordMarch 2, 1994
But I would like to particularly respond to the Senator from Massachusetts talking about Professor Gould's role as an arbitrator. An arbitrator's role is very different from that of the chairman of the National Labor Relations Board. An arbitrator takes a very narrow issue and usually, in many ways, splits it in half. I think that the role of chairman on boards such as the NLRB does allow for one's policy views to play a role in the decisionmaking process. Professor Gould himself has acknowledged that. So I wanted to comment on the difference that exists between the role of an arbitrator and the role that one would play as chairman of the NLRB.
