The National Labor Relations Board is currently in shutdown/furlough due to a lapse in appropriations. NLRB headquarters and all field offices are closed. This website remains available to the public but is not actively maintained during the shutdown. Accordingly, the E-Filing applications (E-Filing, Online Charge and Petition, and My Account Portal) remain available. Documents E-filed during the shutdown will be processed once normal operations resume. 
 
Please note that due dates to file or serve most documents continue to be tolled during the period of the shutdown. However, the due dates for filing unfair labor practice charges and certain representation petitions cannot be tolled. Click here for more information.

How to File a FOIA Request

The NLRB uses SecureRelease to receive, process, and manage FOIA requests. With SecureRelease, you can submit FOIA requests online and track the status of requests.

Before you submit a request for records, please visit our FOIA E-Library to see if the records you seek are available. If they are not and you would like to submit a request for information, here are the ways you can submit a FOIA request:

  • E file your request via SecureRelease
  • E file your request via FOIA.gov
  • Mail. You can send a written request by mail to the FOIA Officer, NLRB FOIA Branch 1015 Half Street SE, 4th Floor Washington, DC 20570
  • Facsimile. You can submit your FOIA request to the FOIA Branch fax number at (202) 273-FOIA (3642)

A FOIA request should include:

  • Your contact information (full name, mailing address, phone number, and email address).
  • Detailed description of the records you seek. Please include NLRB case names and/or numbers if applicable.
  • Fee amount you are willing to assume for processing your FOIA request.
