	The law at work, Monthly Labor Review Online, Mar. 1998
		Justice Scalia and the majority court concluded that the polling standard imposed by the Board was "rational and consistent" with the Act.
		The Court found, in Justice Scalia’s words, that "each sentence of this [the Board’s] explanation is nonsense," and, referring to two particular sentences in Laidlaw, "[the] two sentences together are not even compatibly nonsensical." The opinion criticized the Board for applying in practice a standard other than the one enunciated.
		Justice Breyer’s dissenting opinion took issue with the conclusions found in Parts III and IV of the majority opinion.

	Laborers Arthur Coia Probe May Focus Attention On Bill Clinton (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Justice Department officials have said, however, that the former federal prosecutor in charge of the union's internal investigations, Robert D. Luskin, has notified the department of plans to file the internal charges by Oct. 31.
		Nor is it clear whether the Coia case fits the Thompson committee's mandate to investigate fundraising for the 1996 elections.
		Russell said the Justice Department professionals have prodded Luskin, the union-hired lawyer who acts as internal prosecutor, to pursue allegations against Coia.

	Laborers' Reform Deal Proceeds In Secret
		A Justice Department spokesman explained that the agreement is an "internal matter" between the federal government and the 770,000-member union.
		The union's president, Angelo Fosco, was routinely meeting with the top leaders of the Chicago mob, and had appointed "made" members of organized crime to important union posts.
		Soon afterward, the Justice Department, acting in part on the commission's recommendations, filed a civil racketeering lawsuit against the Teamsters that led to broad reform within that union.

		A top labor union official who has been a leading Democratic campaign contributor was fined $100,000 yesterday for engaging in an improper business investment with a union vendor but was cleared of the more serious charges that he is under Mafia control and will be allowed to keep his job.
		Union officials cite the sterling reputation of the former federal investigators who had been recommended by the Justice Department and who handled the case.
		But the union's special appeals officer in such a case is Neil Eggleston, a former federal prosecutor who has represented the White House in its disputes with independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr over Clinton's assertions of privilege.

		The investigation was coordinated by the New Jersey Division of Criminal Justice and the Linden Police Department, with the assistance of the Union County Prosecutor’s Office, the Rahway and Roselle Police Departments and the New Jersey State Police Street Gang Unit.
		According to Criminal Justice Director McKoy, the covert aspect of the ongoing investigation ended with the issuance of arrest warrants for 19 individuals identified as members or associates of the “Bloods” street gang, participants in the illegal drug trade, or purchasers of illegal drugs.
		In the interest of investigative security and pursuant to established court requirements, the Attorney General’s Office, the Division of Criminal Justice, and the Union County Prosecutor’s Office is limited in discussing specific details regarding the ongoing investigation and the alleged conspiracies.

		The second was a draft 212-page complaint from the Justice Department, previewing a lawsuit to place the Laborers' International Union of North America under federal control and oust Coia as general president, on grounds that he had knowingly let mobsters run the 750,000-member union.
		Justice Department prosecutor Paul Coffey, who closed the deal, says he understands these misgivings and admits that "the jury is still out." But, he adds, "if we are not satisfied that [the union] is doing a job as good as or better than a court-appointed officer would," Justice might move for a takeover after all.
		Under the deal Justice accepted, officials contend, mobsters are indeed being cleaned out--not only in Buffalo but also in the New York City area and soon in Chicago--and Coia has agreed to a rank-and-file vote in September.

	Chron.com \| Justice: Players union on wrong side of drug issue
		Through the years, union leaders have done a brilliant job of uniting players, speaking with one voice and being utterly consistent in the pursuit of an unrestrained marketplace.
		Thanks to their union, major-league players have seen their average annual salary go from $45,000 in 1975 to $2.5 million in 2003.
		So now when players are being asked to defy their union leadership and agree to a tougher testing program for steroids, it's impossible to overstate the importance of economics in this debate.

	Workers at the Center: Silicon Valley Campaign for Justice by Lisa Hoyos
		By necessity, the Justice Campaign's organizing efforts are focused not only on the contractors directly employing landscapers, but also on the client companies which profit from the low-bid system.
		Both Justice for Janitors and the Campaign for Justice are crafting that response with low-wage immigrant workers in the private-sector.
		For example, after the Los Angeles uprising of 1992, Justice for Janitors held a huge march to protest stepped-up INS activity and police harassment, and to reclaim the Latino immigrant neighborhood of Pico-Union.

		Environmental justice activists believe that environmental health professionals have focused attention in communities where the threats are not as great, but where resources for prevention are easier to procure.
		Environmental justice activists do not understand why environmental health professionals often take criticism of their professional efforts so personally; they fail to recognize how invested professionals are in their jobs.

	People's Weekly World Newspaper Online - Longshore union charges Justice Department bias
		In a letter sent to the Justice Department Oct. 29, the ILWU pointedly criticized the tone of the Justice Department letter sent to them, stating that the government agency clearly showed partiality towards the PMA.
		While the Justice Department continued to demand that the union respond to PMA’s allegations that the union has failed to comply with the Taft-Hartley court order, the department does not equally demand information from the PMA regarding the union’s charges that the PMA has violated the injunction.
		Instead, the union states, the PMA prefers “to adopt a confrontational posture that appears to be aimed only at framing the union to take the blame for the continuing effects of the lockout.”

	BHOPAL SURVIVORS ENGAGE IN CYBERACTION TO DEMAND JUSTICE FROM UNION CARBIDE
		Bhopal, India - Thousands of people, primarily survivors of Union Carbide's disastrous gas leak in 1984, gathered today at the gates of the abandoned factory to send their calls for justice to Union Carbide and the government of India via a unique cyber action campaign organised by Greenpeace and Bhopal based survivor support organisations.
		The sufferings of the gas victims living around the now-abandoned Union Carbide factory is aggravated by the presence of several tons of toxic wastes generated by Union Carbide that lie scattered and exposed to the environment within the factory premises.
		Later this year, Union Carbide plans to merge with Dow chemicals, the multinational responsible for Agent Orange, a toxic defoliant used in the Vietnam war.

	NASA v. FLRA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Subsequently, the employee's union filed a charge with the Federal Labor Relations Authority (Authority), alleging that NASA and its OIG had committed an unfair labor practice when the investigator limited the union representative's participation in the interview.
		In ruling for the union, an Administrative Law Judge concluded that the OIG investigator was a "representative" of NASA within FSLMRS' meaning, and that the investigator's behavior had violated the employee's right to union representation.
		In a 5-4 opinion delivered by Justice John Paul Stevens, the Court held that an investigator from NASA's Office of Inspector General is a "representative" of NASA when conducting an employee examination covered by the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute, such that the right to union representation in the FSLMRS may be invoked.

	SSRN-Justice and Union Participation: An Extension and Test of Mobilization Theory by Nancy Brown Johnson, Paul Jarley
		Heeding John Kelly's call to reorient the field of industrial relations towards the study of injustice, we employ mobilization, social exchange and organizational justice theories to specify and test a model of union participation.
		Using individual-level survey data from public-sector union members to test our model, we find that differences in worker perceptions of workplace injustice and union justice explain slightly more variation in members' union participation than more traditional measures of job satisfaction and union instrumentality perceptions.

		The National Union for Social Justice pushed for the silver standard, arguing that this metal was more plentiful and it would in turn increase the amount of money circulating within the economy.
		I believe not only in the right of the laboring man to organize in unions, but also in the duty of the government, which that laboring man supports, to protect these organizations against the vested interests of wealth and of intellect.
		I believe in preferring the sanctity of human rights to the sanctity of property rights; for the chief concern of government shall be for the poor because, as it is witnessed, the rich have ample means of their own to care for themselves

	Graduate School Directories - Criminal Justice
		About the field of Criminal Justice: Criminal Justice is a broad field that typically spans the criminal justice system itself as well as Law, Criminology, Public Policy, and related issues.
		Criminal justice can also frequently overlap with fields such as Sociology, Social Work, Population Studies, and Political Science, since those who are trying to run or reform the criminal justice system must understand the causes that feed into the system and the effects that changes to the system will make.
		Studying criminal justice, therefore, can enable students to work in a variety of positions depending on the areas in which they specialize and their particular interests.
