Marty Walsh Confirmed as Biden's Secretary of Labor

This week, the U.S. Senate confirmed former Boston Mayor Marty Walsh to lead the Department of Labor. Walsh is the first union member to serve as Secretary of Labor in nearly 50 years. Walsh will ensure that working people have one of their own at the table every time a major decision is made that affects their lives.

"President Biden has made it clear that during his administration, encouraging working people to join together in unions to stand up for themselves and improve their workplaces will be a top priority. We are confident that as Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh will carry out this mission," said CWA President Chris Shelton.
