‘You can’t be pro-billionaire and pro-working class’: Biden’s labor chief on return of Trump

Summary

Acting Labor Secretary Julie Su expressed skepticism about Donald Trump’s claims of being a pro-worker.

Su cited Trump’s past anti-union policies and his billionaire advisers, such as Elon Musk, an outspoken union opponent.

Su highlighted infrastructure investments, increased labor protections, and enforcement of wage theft laws, but expressed concerns that Trump’s return could reverse these gains.

She condemned plans for mass deportations and budget cuts, warning they would harm vulnerable workers.
