Trump pushes US labor board toward Republican control

By Daniel Wiessner
Undated, Jun 28 (Reuters) US President Donald Trump said he had picked an employment lawyer who has represented companies and business groups for a vacancy on the National Labor Relations Board.
The White House said in a statement yesterday that Trump intended to nominate William Emanuel, 75, to fill one of two vacancies on the five-member NLRB, which oversees union elections and disputes between workers, unions, and employers. The move brings the agency closer to having a Republican majority, which is expected to undo a series of recent decisions seen as favoring unions.
