today the senate will consider the nomination of eugene scalia. mr. scalia's nomination is a slap to the face of labor because mr. scalia's life work has been utterly opposed to the mission of the agency to which he's nominated. he has sided repeatedly with the large corporate interest against the working people. if any working person doubts that president trump does not have their interest at heart, look at who he's nominated. this guy shouldn't even make if for secretary of commerce let alone secretary of labor, which is supposed to defend and protect the working people of america. president trump could have chosen a card-carrying union member for the job. he could have chosen someone who understands the needs of workers and unions, the history of the labor movement and the established right of workers to collectively bargain for better wages and safer conditions. instead, president trump nominated mr. scalia, a corporate lawyer who has spent his entire career protecting the interest of c.e.o.'s, big corporations and the wealthy elite. not workers, n
