Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer resigns from Trump administration amid misconduct investigation

Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer resigned on Monday, with the White House announcing she would move to the private sector. The departure came amid an ongoing inspector general investigation into allegations including misuse of taxpayer funds for personal travel, an inappropriate relationship with a security detail member, and drinking on the job. Deputy Labor Secretary Keith Sonderling was named acting labor secretary, and Chavez-DeRemer becomes the third Trump Cabinet member to depart in his second term.
