The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has announced the appointment of Stephanie Cahn as its acting deputy general counsel. This appointment was made public on Thursday, marking a new chapter in Cahn’s long-standing career with the agency. Cahn, who started with the NLRB in 1997, will now step into the role that serves as a vital segment of the leadership within the Board. Previously, she has worn several hats, beginning her tenure as a field attorney in the agency’s downtown Los Angeles region before ascending to the position of supervisory field attorney in 2013, and subsequently, the regional attorney in 2024.
This transition comes at a critical time, as the NLRB continues to navigate the evolving landscape of labor relations in the United States. Cahn’s extensive experience within the agency could provide stability and continuity in labor policy enforcement during her time in this provisional role.
