Lori Chavez-DeRemer, President Donald Trump’s labor secretary, is leaving her position amid professional misconduct allegations, becoming the third Cabinet member to depart during Trump’s second term.
White House communications director Steven Cheung posted on X on Monday that Chavez-DeRemer would leave the Cabinet to take a position in the private sector, though he did not say where she was going. Cheung said the deputy labor secretary, Keith Sonderling, would become the acting head of the agency.
