Lori Chavez-DeRemer: The little-known Trump nominee who may need to rely on Dems to cross finish line
Fox News
President Trump's pick to lead the Department of Labor, former Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer, R-Ore., has left Republicans in the Senate with some questions over her pro-union stances.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., told reporters that "support for the PRO Act is not something that most Republicans have tolerated in the past, but I think she's attempted to address that, and my hope is that she can further clarify her position on some of those issues when she goes through the hearing process."
