                  SECRETARY WALSH IS A BAD-FAITH ACTOR

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FOXX. Madam Speaker, Labor Secretary Marty Walsh needs to 
remember that he is a Cabinet member, not an activist. His one-sided 
involvement in active labor disputes is unfair and unprecedented.
  He is a former union president and the first union member in nearly 
half a century to lead the Department of

Labor. If you believe he can be an impartial arbiter, then I have 
swampland in New Mexico to sell you. The head of the AFL-CIO herself 
expressed approval of Walsh's willingness to work ``behind the 
scenes.''
  Walsh's infamous picket line participation with strikers at the 
Kellogg's factory won't be his last attempt to interfere with labor-
management disputes. Politico recently reported Walsh is ``eager to 
help with others.''
  Walsh's pro-union advocacy disqualifies him from acting as an honest 
broker. He would rather protect his union boss cronies than protect 
workers and job creators.
