IFPTE Counsel and Former AFL-CIO Staff Nominated to Labor Relations Authority
Julia Clark, general counsel for the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE), and Ernie DuBester, a former AFL-CIO Legislative Affairs staff member, were nominated by President Obama last week to serve on the Federal Labor Relations Authority (FLRA)—the federal workers’ version of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
Clark was nominated to the FLRA’s general counsel post. She is a former Justice Department trial attorney in the Anti-Trust Division and has spent the past 20 years as a labor and employment law attorney representing unions and workers.
