Biden picked Su, a civil rights attorney and the current deputy labor secretary, to replace Marty Walsh, the former mayor of Boston, to lead the Department of Labor.
that would have required app-based ride hailing and delivery companies like Uber and Lyft, as well as trucking businesses, to treat their workers as employees, providing benefits like paid sick leave and unemployment insurance, rather than independent contractors.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, the committee’s chair, voiced support as he opened Thursday’s hearing, saying the debate over Su “has nothing to do with her qualifications.” Manchin repeatedly declined to comment on Su’s nomination this week; Tester said he would meet with her after the meeting to “make sure she’s still right”; Kelly said he didn’t have concerns about her record but added he does not preview his votes; Sinema said through a spokeswoman that she does not preview votes.During her testimony, Su repeatedly referenced her work alongside Walsh, saying that Biden had asked her to “finish the job that Secretary Walsh and I started.
The top Republican on the panel, Sen. Bill Cassidy, accused Su of unfairly favoring unions, telling her, “We need a labor secretary who is fair and unbiased in enforcing the nation’s labor laws.”
