Trump's Labor Secretary Nominee Sparks Conservative Backlash

TL;DR Summary
President-elect Trump's nomination of Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer as Labor Secretary is causing concern among conservative groups due to her pro-union stance, marking a shift from Trump's previous anti-union administration. Chavez-DeRemer, who has a union background and supported the Pro Act, is seen as a win for union leaders like Teamsters president Sean O'Brien. While some Republicans support her, business groups and conservative advocates are wary of her position on labor issues, particularly the Pro Act, which could hold companies accountable for franchise and gig workers.
