Chavez-DeRemer, who was confirmed by the Senate on March 10, 2025, with notable bipartisan support in a 67-32 vote, has quickly established herself as a key figure in the Trump administration. Her confirmation received support from 17 Democrats while three Republicans opposed her nomination, reflecting her reputation as a moderate on labor issues.
Prior to her appointment, Chavez-DeRemer served as a Republican congresswoman representing Oregon's 5th District and was a member of the House Education and Workforce Committee. Her background includes service as the mayor of Happy Valley, Oregon, and membership in various congressional caucuses including the Republican Main Street Partnership and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.
The Secretary now oversees a department with nearly 16,000 full-time employees and a proposed budget of $13.9 billion for fiscal year 2025. Her responsibilities include regulating workplace safety standards, investigating wage disputes, and enforcing laws on union organizing.
Chavez-DeRemer faces significant challenges in her role, particularly regarding the administration's efforts to reduce the federal workforce. Her department is among those named in lawsuits challenging the authority of billionaire Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to order layoffs and access sensitive government data.
During her confirmation hearing, Chavez-DeRemer indicated she would examine DOGE operations within the Labor Department. She also expressed support for Registered Apprenticeship Programs and the reauthorization of the Workforce Opportunity and Innovation Act.
The Secretary's previous support for the PRO Act, which would have strengthened workers' rights to organize, caused some hesitation among Republican senators during her confirmation process. However, she has aligned herself with the administration's immigration stance, stating, "The mass immigration we've seen over the last four years has hurt the American worker, and we want to make sure we're supporting President Trump in his endeavor to support the American worker at all costs."
A California native and graduate of both Hanford High School and Fresno State, Chavez-DeRemer brings her Valley background to Washington. After her confirmation, she posted on social media that she was "deeply honored" to serve in this position.
As the nation's 30th Secretary of Labor, Chavez-DeRemer will play a crucial role in shaping labor policies during a period of significant economic and workplace transformation in America.
