To avoid” undue delay ,” biden labor secretary pick requested to appear before House panel before June.
Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC), a member of the Committee on Oversight and Accountability, requested that President Joe Biden’s labor secretary pick, Julie Su, appear before the committee before June to prevent “undue delay” that would prevent the panel “from conducting its oversight work.”
As the acting secretary of labor, Foxx, who is also the director of the Committee on Education and the Workforce, reminded Su that she has an” responsibility to be accountable” to the council as it conducts” needed supervision on federal agencies and high-ranking officials” in a letter dated April 18.
How Major Blow to Biden May Be Price by Manchin, Sinema, and Tester
Foxx wrote in the text that Politico obtained,” I am conducting necessary monitoring on federal agencies and high-ranking authorities as Chairwoman of the Committee on Education and the Workforce.” ” In doing so, I am holding sessions with firm heads quickly and in a timely manner.” The goal of this letter is to inform you of your responsibility to be responsible and to encourage you to search before the Committee in your capacity as the acting head of the Department of Labor and the President’s’s candidate for the position of then secretary of labor.
She stated that the acting secretary’s’s clear intention to appear before the council no later than the summer was” unethical” and demonstrates that she is more focused on maintaining her reputation than performing well at her work.
We understand that you do not intend to make yourself available to the Committee before June, about midway through the First Session of the 118th Congress, despite offering times that gave you between approximately one quarter and nearly two months to cook, she continued. This is unethical, and it is a waste of time that prevents the Committee from carrying out its oversight duties. Additionally, it suggests that you are less concerned with upholding your report and your chances of winning as a candidate than with abiding by your responsibility to address mistakes and hold yourself accountable.
Throughout the letter, Foxx used a harsh tone, calling the Biden Department of Labor’s’s record” destructive” and in” critical” need of oversight.
The division has pursued a violent agenda that stifled economic growth by enforcing more regulations and regulations, producing fewer benefits for employees and employers, and driving up costs at the expense of American taxpayers. Additionally, the division has ignored the committee’s’s requests for monitoring. She continued,” Committee Members must question you about this troubling report.

Foxx described the regulatory mission of the Biden Labor Department as” dangerous to people and their households.” May 17 has been set aside as the original reading date for the committee.
Su’s’s appointment as labor secretary depends on two democratic Democrats and one independent: Sens. Su faces a difficult verification hearing. Jon Tester( D-MT ), Kyrsten Sinema( I-AZ ), and Joe Manchin, D-WV. Given that Manchin has already expressed personal concerns, her guidance for regulatory measures that are opposed by the tech and business sectors had cost her the three industries’ assistance.
