## Opinion text

GINSBURG, Circuit Judge,
separate concurring statement:
I note as a postscript to the many pages we have written that as a court of review we must wrestle with the “matters of high principle” aired in this case. See Weiler, Promises to Keep: Securing Workers’ Rights to Self-Organization Under the NLRA, 96 Harv.L.Rev. 1769, 1794 (1983). The point has been made tellingly, however, that “[i]f the law is to have any chance of vindicating the employees’ group right to ‘bargain collectively through representatives of their own choosing,’ the [relief] it promises must come quickly.” Id. at 1793. We write as 1983 runs out about a unionization campaign that occurred in the spring and summer of 1977. The long delays at every stage of this and similar proceedings may indeed render the Board’s remedies, however stiff, “beside the point.” Id. at 1794 (footnote omitted).
