President Barack Obama picked a Democrat and two Republicans to the U.S. labor board, including a lawyer who in 2011 faulted the agency’s prosecution of Boeing Co. for opening an airplane factory in South Carolina.
Obama today nominated Republicans Harry Johnson, a lawyer with Arent Fox LLP in Los Angeles who covers management-side labor and employment law, and Philip Miscimarra, a partner in the labor and employment group of Morgan Lewis & Bockius LLP, in Chicago, for the National Labor Relations Board. Chairman Mark Gaston Pearce, whose term end in August, was renominated.
