In particular, it dismissed an allegation that Apple CEO Tim Cook violated workers' rights when he sent an all-staff email that year, which said "people who leak confidential information do not belong" in the company. Cook also said in the email that Apple was "doing everything in [its] power to identify those who leaked" information from an internal meeting the previous week, wherein management answered workers' questions about pay equity and Texas’ anti-abortion law. In addition dropping its claim that Cook violated workers' rights, the labor board is also withdrawing its allegation that the firing of activist Janneke Parrish, one of the leaders of the #AppleToo movement, broke the law.
