Controversy Surrounds Biden's Labor Secretary Nominee Confirmation.
TL;DR Summary
Unions are rallying behind President Joe Biden's pick to lead the Labor Department, Julie Su, as Democrats seek to avoid a defeat that would set back the administration's agenda for workers. Unified Republican opposition to the nominee has the unions and the White House focused on a handful of moderate senators who have yet to make their intentions known. The AFL-CIO has launched a campaign to drum up support for Su, with an emphasis on getting local affiliates to lean on undecided senators and a six-figure ad buy running in Washington, D.C. and Arizona.
