President-elect Donald Trump is expected to name fast-food executive Andy Puzder as labor secretary, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Puzder, chief executive of the parent company that runs Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s burger chains, “has been a vocal advocate for cutting back regulations he says have stifled growth in the restaurant industry” and “has criticized the Affordable Care Act and has argued against raising the federal minimum wage higher than $9 an hour.”
