In this episode of *The Secretary of Labor Podcast*, hosted by Mortimer, we explore the transformative steps being taken by Lori Chavez-DeRemer, the current Secretary of Labor, who is poised to make significant changes within labor policy. Delve into her recent spotlight moment as she, along with Deputy Secretary Keith Sonderling, launched Project Firewall.
