President Trump said Thursday evening that he will name Eugene Scalia, one of the sons of the late Justice Antonin Scalia, as labor secretary.
The president took to Twitter to announce “that it is my intention to nominate Gene Scalia as the new Secretary of Labor,” a post being vacated officially Friday by Alex Acosta.
“Gene has led a life of great success in the legal and labor field and is highly respected not only as a lawyer, but as a lawyer with great experience working with labor and everyone else. He will be a great member of an Administration that has done more in the first 2½ years than perhaps any Administration in history!” Mr. Trump wrote over two tweets.
