The Federal Labor Relations Authority (FLRA) announces the publishing of a final rule

jurisdictions in light of the closing of the FLRA’s Chicago Regional Office. The FLRA is also
amending regulations regarding a number of its case handling processes following the
elimination of non-statutory functions pursuant to Executive Order 14210.
The Federal Register notice details the final rule to carry out these changes.
