Labor Relations Radio, E154—A Union Trojan Horse Is Being Pushed For Labor Secretary; Michael Saltsman Explains

LaborUnionNews.com's Labor Relations Radio

Teamsters' President Sean O'Brien—and the AFT's Randi Weingarten—want a pro-union former Congresswoman to head Donald Trump's Department of Labor.
Teamsters President Sean O’Brien is recommending Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer, an Oregon Republican, to lead the Department of Labor under the incoming Trump administration.

She is an odd choice for Trump to consider, given her backing of the economy-destroying PRO Act, and she has already garnered much criticism from many people and groups, including independent contractor advocates.

In this episode of Labor Relations Radio, Michael Saltsman, a partner with Berman & Co. joins host Peter List to discuss what is driving the push behind Chavez-DeRemer, as well as why she would be a bad choice for the incoming Trump administration.
