Foxx: Not Surprised, Just Disappointed in Leader Schumer

In response to Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s last-ditch effort to keep labor bosses happy, Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) issued the following statement: 

“President Trump was given a mandate by the American people, and that means that Big Labor knows the days of having the federal government do its bidding are numbered. I’m not surprised, but I am disappointed that Leader Schumer would attempt to force a five-year appointment through as the door is quickly closing. Thankfully, his colleagues had enough commonsense to stop a move that dramatically undercuts the will of the voters, and I look forward to the Trump administration enacting a truly pro-worker agenda.”
