Hello Sisters and Brothers,
This week we are featuring Mnuchin and Puzder. Mnuchin’s hearing is scheduled for this week. Please make calls to block both of these Cabinet picks.
Puzder is EXTRA special to us! Donald Trump’s pick for Secretary of Labor is Andy Puzder, who has a RECORD of UNION BUSTING Tactics!! His company hired Union Busting firms to fire workers who engaged in Union Activities.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren said Mnuchin participated in all the worst practices on Wall Street, spending two decades at Goldman Sachs. “The Foreclosure King” helped bring on the ‘08 Financial Crisis. Again just say NO!!
Below there is a note from CWA's National Legislative Political Director, Shane Larson. Please take a minute to read it before you make your weekly call.
THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO!!!
Shane’s message:
Because of the work that you're doing, the plans by Republican Senators to fast track these nominations through Committee hearings without even proper vetting is slowing down. In just the last two days, the hearing for Education Secretary, billionaire and public school hater Betsy DeVoss has been postponed at least one week. The hearing for Labor Secretary nominee Andy Puzder, now appears unlikely to happen until February. The hearing for the Foreclosure King Steve Mnuchin to be Treasury Secretary hasn't even been scheduled. Wilbur Ross's nomination hearing was set to start on the 12th, but now won't happen until the 18th! Keep in mind that we recognize that once these nominations make it to the Senate floor it will be hard to stop them, but these delays in having those votes is a good win for us!
Again, thank you -
Shane
PLEASE CALL !!! PLEASE CALL!!! PLEASE CALL !!!
