"There are a lot of blank spots in the Trump administration?s agenda about incredibly important issues that make a huge difference to working families," said Portia Wu, a former assistant secretary at the Labor Department under Obama.
He?s also been less outspoken than Puzder, a frequent media commentator, about Labor Department issues like the fate of President Barack Obama?s rule making millions more employees eligible for overtime, which a Texas judge has blocked.
Trump tapped Acosta Feb. 16 to replace his first nominee, CKE Restaurants Inc. CEO Andrew Puzder, who withdrew amid controversies including his past employment of an undocumented housekeeper, a domestic-abuse accusation in his divorce proceedings and alleged labor law violations at CKE?s Hardee?s and Carl?s Jr. brands.
