Chavez-DeRemer Confirmed As Trump’s Labor Chief With Dem Support

In a 67-32 vote on Monday, the Senate easily confirmed former Representative Lori Chavez-DeRemer to be President Trump’s Labor secretary.

Why it’s important Trump’s attempt to undermine Democrats’ long-standing alliance with organized labor is demonstrated by his selection of Chavez-DeRemer, whose father was a Teamsters member, for the position.

Sens. Tedd Budd (N.C.) and Rand Paul (Ky.), as well as former GOP leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), were among the three Republicans who opposed Chavez-DeRemer’s nomination, which was supported by 17 Democrats.

D-Pa. Senator John Fetterman abstained from voting.

Quickly catch up: On February 27, the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee voted 14–9 in favor of Chavez-DeRemer’s nomination.

After Rand Paul (R-Ky.) voted against Seb, Chavez-DeRemer became the first well-known Trump nominee to need Democratic backing to pass committee consideration.
