President-Elect Biden Adds 27 Union Leaders To His Transition Team

[quaint]

The transition teams are being overseen by a transition advisory board, which Biden named earlier in the year. This board includes two union Presidents, Teresa Romero of the United Farm Workers and Lonnie Stephenson of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.

For union members the Labor Department is probably the most important agency within the federal government. The team at the Department of Labor will be responsible for reviewing the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, the Federal Labor Relations Authority, the National Mediation Board, the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Services, the Railroad Retirement Board, and the National Labor Relations Board.

5. Getting better all the time

But February is looming ominously. I always regress that month, a bit worse each time.
This year I'll play dodge-em with Covid, but I'm hopeful.
