Republicans should vote down Trump’s labor nominee

Published



President Donald Trump has nominated a few questionable, lifetime Democrats to the Cabinet. Among his worst picks is a former one-time Republican representative who wants to force workers into labor unions.

Trump nominated former Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer as secretary of labor after she lost her first reelection campaign last year. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has already said he will not support her nomination, predicting that she would lose another 15 Republicans but could get the support of 25 Democrats in the process.
