MARKING 1-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF JULIE SU'S TENURE
(Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, today marks the 1-year anniversary of Julie
Su's tenure as Acting Secretary of Labor.
Why 1 year as Acting Secretary? Su doesn't have the support or votes
to be confirmed.
As California's Secretary of Labor, Ms. Su allowed fraudsters to
steal $32 billion in unemployment insurance, and she supported AB5, a
State law she now wants to make Federal law that denies workers the
freedom to choose their work.
Now, she is pursuing a radical agenda at the Department of Labor,
writing 75 new regulations that will hurt workers and job creators.
Acting Secretary Su continues to thumb her nose at Congress and the
American public. Under Ms. Su's leadership, the DOL has stonewalled
congressional oversight. In fact, in December, she failed to comply
with a duly served congressional subpoena.
The American people deserve better leadership at DOL. The President
should withdraw Ms. Su's nomination.
