Labor Secretary Chavez-DeRemer resigns amid misconduct allegations

Lori Chavez-DeRemer, Trump’s labor secretary, is resigning amid professional misconduct allegations, becoming the third Cabinet member to depart in Trump’s second term; the White House says she will move to the private sector (destination not announced) and deputy Labor Secretary Keith Sonderling will become acting head. The accusations arise from a Labor Department inspector general complaint alleging misconduct including taxpayer-funded personal travel, and the report also references sexual misconduct allegations against Chavez-DeRemer’s husband; the story is developing with updates to come.
