“I look forward to working with her to protect workers’ rights and build the trade union movement in this country,” SenSanders tweeted of Biden's labor secretary pick Julie Su.

Biden is poised to nominate Su, who serves as Walsh's deputy, after Walsh announced he would be stepping down next month to join the National Hockey League Players Association. Su has long been considered a top contender to be Walsh’s replacement, with Sanders noting he’s “confident” in her abilities.“I look forward to working with her to protect workers’ rights and build the trade union movement in this country,” Sanders said in a tweet.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had pushed for former Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney to be nominated, prompting pushback from some Democrats who called the proposal “divisive.” Su's nomination elicited criticism from some Senate Republicans, with Sen. Bill Cassidy , the ranking member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions committee, calling her voting record"troubling."
