Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, the former one-term congresswoman from Oregon whose tenure has been marked by allegations of misconduct including an “inappropriate” relationship with a subordinate, is departing her Cabinet post.
Chavez-DeRemer will be leaving the administration for an undisclosed position in the private sector, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung said Monday on social media.
“She has done a phenomenal job in her role by protecting American workers, enacting fair labor practices, and helping Americans gain additional skills to improve their lives,” Cheung wrote.
