House Republicans demand answers from Biden administration about unions' 'special treatment'
Fox News
EXCLUSIVE: House Republicans are raising alarms about former union officials who were granted ethics waivers to serve in the Biden administration, claiming organized labor is having undue influence on government policy.
"This is the classic definition of a conflict of interest," the GOP reps wrote Tuesday in letters first obtained by Fox News. The letters were authored by Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., the top Republican on the House Oversight Committee and Rep. Virginia Foxx, the top Republican on the House Education and Labor Committee. They said teachers unions have already had too much influence and access to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on guidance for reopening schools and they are now "concerned" the use of ethics waivers is a way for union leaders to infiltrate other corners of the government.More Related News
