To the Members of the United States Senate:
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce strongly supports the nomination of Keith Sonderling to be Secretary of Labor. As demonstrated during his confirmation hearing and throughout his career, Mr. Sonderling is a highly qualified nominee whose leadership and vision will ensure the Department of Labor continues to uphold its mission while fostering economic growth and job creation. Having been confirmed twice by the Senate to critical roles in the Executive branch, we urge the Senate to again confirm Mr. Sonderling.
Mr. Sonderling served in the first Trump administration in the Wage and Hour Division and then as a Senate confirmed member of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. He was confirmed earlier in the second Trump administration as the Deputy Secretary of Labor. While serving as the Deputy Secretary of Labor he effectively managed the Department of Labor as the key policy officer.
Mr. Sonderling has demonstrated the requisite skill, knowledge, and temperament to be an excellent Secretary of Labor. He is eminently qualified and the Chamber looks forward to him being confirmed.
Sincerely,
Neil L. Bradley
Executive Vice President, Chief Policy Officer,
and Head of Strategic Advocacy
U.S. Chamber of Commerce
