A Conversation with Philip A. Miscimarra, NLRB Chairman
June 27, 2017
On April 24, 2017, President Donald Trump named Philip A. Miscimarra Chairman of the NLRB, after serving as acting chairman. The Board now consists only of Chairman Miscimarra, former Chairman Mark Gaston Pearce, whose term ends in August 2018, and Lauren McFerran, whose term ends in December 2019. There are two vacancies on the Board that the President has yet to fill. In addition, General Counsel Richard F. Griffin, Jr.'s term ends in November 2017. Clearly, the Board is in transition.
