* President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R-OR) to be the nation's next labor secretary. * Chavez-DeRemer has a pro-union record, including cosponsoring the PRO Act and the Public Service Freedom to Negotiate Act. * Some Republicans are in "full-blown panic" about her nomination due to her pro-union stance. * Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) plans to question Chavez-DeRemer about her support for "Democrat legislation" that could impact right-to-work states. * The nomination puts the economic populist wing of the Republican Party at odds with more traditional Republicans. * Trump's choice may be seen as a response to President Joe Biden's pro-labor record and a reward to Teamsters president Sean O'Brien. * #TrumpCabinet * #LaborSecretary * #LoriChavezDeRemer * #PROAct * #PublicServiceFreedomToNegotiateAct * #RightToWork * #RepublicanParty * #TrumpTransition * #LaborRights https://www.rawstory.com/trump-cabinet-2669999789/
