b. False

Answer 1

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) was created to strengthen the power of employees and protect their right to form and join unions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is False.

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) was actually created to strengthen the power of employees and protect their right to form and join unions.

In response to the disregard of provisions made by the previous National Recovery Administration (NRA) to protect workers' rights, the Wagner Act (National Labor Relations Act) was signed into law, reinstating government support for workers who sought to bargain collectively. The NLRB was established by the Wagner Act to arbitrate disputes between unions and employers.
