Section 8(a)(1) of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) prohibits employers from interfering with, restraining, or coercing employees in the exercise of their rights guaranteed in Section 7 of the NLRA, which includes the right to self-organization, to form, join, or assist labor organizations, to bargain collectively, and to engage in other concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection. Anti-union remarks by a company president could be seen as an attempt to interfere with these rights.
