"Biden Nominates Three New Members to Chemical Safety Board"

"The Biden administration nominated Sylvia Johnson, Jennifer Sass, and Steve Owens to serve on the U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board.

The five-member board currently operates as what Katherine Lemos, the holdover chair and a Trump appointee, has characterized as a quorum of one, with depleted staffing and a backlog of open investigations.

Johnson currently leads the National Education Association’s Government Relations department and its legislative work on the safe reopening of schools during the pandemic."
