Trump chooses pro-union Republican for labour secretary
The Straits Times
|November 24, 2024
WASHINGTON - US President-elect Donald Trump said he will nominate outgoing US Representative Lori Chavez-DeRemer to lead the Labour Department, choosing a Republican whose unusually pro-union record has rankled some of his business allies.

Ms Chavez-DeRemer was one of the few Republicans to co-sponsor sweeping pro-union Bills, including the PRO Act, which would restrict union-busting tactics and make it much harder for companies such as Uber Technologies to classify staff as independent contractors rather than employees.
"I look forward to working with her to create tremendous opportunity for American workers, to expand training and apprenticeships, to grow wages and improve working conditions, to bring back our manufacturing jobs," Trump said in a statement on his Truth Social platform on Nov 22. "Together, we will achieve historic cooperation between business and labour that will restore the American Dream for working families."
