The Senate confirmed Keith Sonderling as labor secretary late Wednesday as senators prepared to leave for the campaign ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. The decision followed a series of noticeable departures within President Donald Trump’s Cabinet.
Sonderling, previously acting labor secretary since April, stepped into the role after former labor secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer resigned. His confirmation comes amidst a backdrop of other high-profile resignations and dismissals within the administration this year.
President Trump’s Cabinet has experienced a series of changes, with Sonderling now officially filling the position of labor secretary. This confirmation marks another significant personnel move in the ongoing adjustments within the executive branch.
