WASHINGTON, U.S.: Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer resigned on April 20 amid an inspector general investigation into allegations of professional misconduct, according to administration announcements and media reports. White House communications director Steven Cheung said she will leave to take a private-sector position, and Deputy Secretary Keith Sonderling will serve as acting secretary. WASHINGTON: The Labor Department inspector general is reportedly nearing the end of a months-long probe that began after a whistleblower complaint; outlets cite allegations including an alleged affair with a security team member and use of department resources for personal trips. Chavez-DeRemer called her service an honor on X; the administration framed the departure as a personnel change.
