Remember, this guy was proposed for Labor Secretary..
Quote:"Andy Puzder is against unions, calls the minimum wage and overtime 'restrictions' and employees 'extra cost,' and even said he wants to fire workers like us and replace us with machines that can't take vacation or sue their employers when they break the law," the nonprofit Interfaith Worker Justice quoted Rogelio Hernandez, a Carl's Jr. cook, as saying. Puzder also spoke out against Obamacare and overtime pay. In essence, as CKE's CEO, he had already gone on the record opposing regulation that groups like the Fight for $15 and the National Employment Law Project (NELP) have fought to pass and protect. With his nomination, organizations fighting for fast-food workers' rights went from seeing Puzder as the opponent as an employer, to seeing him as the enemy as a potential Secretary of Labor — the person tasked with protecting workers' rights.Puzder's Labor Secretary failure reveals fast-food war - Business Insider
