Business groups are lauding President Trump for announcing his intent to fill the last open seat on the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) with labor-law attorney William Emanuel.

Emanuel, who represents employers in labor and employment law matters at Littler Mendelson in Los Angeles, would round out the panel, which had two vacancies when Trump took office.

“It is long past time that these vacancies on the National Labor Relations Board are filled,” Mark Mix, president of the National Right to Work Committee and the National Right to Work Foundation said in a statement.

“The Senate should quickly confirm these qualified nominees.”

I was in Kentucky the other day and was greeted at the border by a nice little sign stating how proud they were to be Right to Work. Guess this must have been recent as I did not know they were such a state.
