Trumpβs Department of Labor Continues Its Onslaught against Workers
The Trump administration is doubling down on the president and his Department of Laborβs (DOL) deep hostility toward workers. Over the past six months,
Trump does not care about American workers - DOGE, Trumpβs union busting cronies, and his @dol.gov leadership proves it.
Their actions have βput the lives of workers across the economy at risk,β says @juliesulabor.bsky.social, former Acting Secretary of the DOL.

-Steal workersβ wages
-Make workers less safe
-Intimidate workers trying to organize
