President-elect Donald Trump announced Friday night that he has selected Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R-OR) to be the next U.S. Secretary of Labor.
Chavez-DeRemer, 56, a first-term member of Congress who lost her re-election bid earlier this month, has “worked tirelessly with both Business and Labor to build America’s workforce, and support the hardworking men and women of America,” Trump said in a statement.
“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,” he added. “Together, we will achieve historic cooperation between Business and Labor that will restore the American Dream for Working Families.”
Chavez-DeRemer said that working-class Americans would now have a “lifeline” to rely upon inside the administration.
“It’s time to bring our economy to new heights and secure a prosperous future for all hardworking Americans,” she said.
Thank you for this opportunity, President Trump!
Working-class Americans finally have a lifeline with you in the White House.
