Summary

Once the vote is certified or a settlement is reached—whichever happens first—the Attorney General must ask the court to end the injunction, and the court must do so. After the injunction is ended, the President must send Congress a full report on what happened, including the board of inquiry’s findings, the National Labor Relations Board’s ballot results, and any recommendations he wants to make.
