Wearing wrinkled basketball shorts and a burgundy Carhartt hoodie, Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) met on May 3 with Julie Su, President Joe Biden’s nominee for secretary of labor.

“We need a secretary of labor who will fight for workers. It was an honor to meet with Acting Labor Secretary Su,” Fetterman said in a statement. “I know she is the labor ally we need in this position. I will be voting yes on her confirmation, and I urge all my colleagues to do the same.”
