Staff decry ‘constant turbulence’ under Trump’s labor secretary, as she blames ‘deep state’ in resignation
“Secretary Chavez-DeRemer advanced the administration’s anti-worker agenda, facing removal only for the scandals she was involved in, and not the decisions she made that reduced oversight of workplace safety and enforcement of labor laws, leaving workers more vulnerable to injury, wage theft and exploitation,” said the congressional members in a statement. “Her tenure leaves workers with less protections and greater economic insecurity.”…

"In short, this charade of Ms Halligan masquerading as the United States Attorney for this District in direct defiance of binding court orders must come to an end."
