GOP senators prepare to grill Biden’s labor pick as ‘activist’ with a ‘history of bias’
Fox News
Sen. Bill Cassidy, ranking member of the Senate HELP Committee, is expected to question whether Su, if confirmed, will "act as an activist to promote a political agenda."
She’s appearing before the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee, chaired by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. She’s already got the backing of the Democratic Socialist senator, who called Su an excellent candidate in a statement announcing her hearing. Elizabeth Elkind is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital.
But spokesperson for the top Republican on the committee, Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, told Fox News Digital the senator will "lay out an important question before the committee regarding Julie Su’s nomination. Does her record indicate that she will be a responsible, experienced administrator of the department or will she act as an activist to promote a political agenda?"
