Relations Board General Counsel Peter B. Robb announced the selection of
Richard J. Lussier as the new Assistant General Counsel for the Agency’s
Injunction Litigation Branch in Washington, DC.
In his new position as branch
chief, Mr. Lussier will manage the Injunction Litigation Branch, which

member of the Injunction Litigation Branch for the last three years. I am
confident he will be a strong and effective leader continuing the branch’s work
enforcing the Act,”
Mr. Lussier began his career at
the NLRB in 1996 as an attorney in the Division of Advice. He was promoted to
supervisory attorney in the Injunction Litigation Branch in 2017. A Connecticut
native, Mr. Lussier graduated from the University of Connecticut in 1991,
Quinnipiac University School of Law in 1995, and Georgetown University Law
Center in 1997.
Established
in 1935, the National Labor Relations Board is an independent federal agency
that protects employees, employers, and unions from unfair labor practices and
protects the right of private sector employees to join together, with or
without a union, to improve wages, benefits and working conditions. The NLRB
conducts hundreds of workplace elections and investigates thousands of unfair
labor practice charges each year.
