    NumbersUSA's Jeremy Beck on whether Donald Trump will nominate Eugene
    Scalia to succeed Marty Walsh: <URL:https://www.numbersusa.com/blog/tale-two-secretaries>
    | WORKER POWER
    |
    | Former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich (on Substack): "Here's the
    | truth: There is no labor shortage. There is, however, a shortage of
    | jobs paying sufficient wages to attract workers to fill job
    | openings."
    |
    | LOOSE BORDERS
    |
    | Current U.S. Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh (in Davos): "One of the
    | biggest threats to our economy is not inflation or wage growth, it's
    | lack of workers. And immigration reform is a key to that."
    |
    | Yahoo Finance reporter Julie Hyman spoke to Secretary Walsh at the
    | World Economic Forum in Davos and asked him if he'd had
    | conversations with foreign leaders about "what should be, maybe the
    | free flow of labor across borders."
    |
    | "It came up today," Walsh replied before stating that the United
    | States didn't have "a big enough pathway" to import workers for "big
    | tech jobs" or for "working in restaurants."

    Does Trump regret taking Jared Kushner's advice to downplay the
    National Question on the campaign trail against Joe Biden and Kamala
    Harris?
