Exciting news:
President Biden nominated Julie Su — the current Acting Secretary of Labor — to
serve as the next Secretary of Labor. If confirmed, she will be the first AAPI
Cabinet secretary of the Biden administration.
During the White House nomination event, Acting Secretary of Labor Su shared:
"We have an extraordinary opportunity to build an economy where no one feels
invisible, where every individual and community not only gets to benefit from
the President's transformative vision for America, but also gets to help make it
real."
We couldn’t agree more.
Julie Su is a fierce ally and strong advocate for all workers. Her impressive
track record of defending workers’ rights and strengthening labor laws will be
crucial in our fight to ensure everyone is paid fair wages, protected in the
workplace, and treated with dignity and respect.
As a woman of color and a daughter of immigrants, Julie Su also embodies the
diversity of our nation and would bring critical lived experience to President
Biden’s Cabinet.
But none of this can happen until the Senate confirms Julie Su. Please, send an email to your senators urging them to swiftly vote for
Julie Su's confirmation as the next Secretary of the Department of Labor >>>

[[link removed]]As we gear up for potential political attacks during her confirmation hearings,
keep these 3 things in mind: 1) Julie Su is the most qualified person to lead
the Department of Labor — already serving as Deputy Secretary, she knows the
agency inside and out; 2) She reflects the breadth and diversity of our country,
and her decades-long career is an example of her commitment to advancing racial
equity; 3) She is a true champion for workers of all backgrounds.
Thank you for joining us in calling on the Senate to confirm Julie Su without
delay.
