President-elect Donald Trump has fired off another Friday night cabinet pick, selecting Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R-Ore.) to lead his Department of Labor.

“Lori has worked tirelessly with both business and labor to build America’s workforce, and support the hardworking men and women of America,” Trump wrote in a Nov. 22 statement on the nomination.

Chavez-DeRemer, 56, is a member of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. She is married to anesthesiologist Shawn DeRemer and has two children.
