Sanders Demands Musk Senate Testimony: Real Power, Charades, and Corporate Influence
Senator Sanders vehemently opposed Lori Chavez-DeRemer’s nomination for Secretary of Labor, arguing that Elon Musk’s undue influence renders the position largely symbolic. He highlighted the critical need for stronger labor protections, citing the stagnant minimum wage and the prevalence of anti-union tactics by corporations. Sanders called for hearings to examine Musk’s pervasive role in the Trump administration, asserting that he effectively dictates policy across numerous departments. Ultimately, he urged his colleagues to reject the nomination and investigate Musk’s influence.
