Labor Sec. Nominee Gets a Hearing Date


Secretary of Labor nominee Alexander Acosta's confirmation hearing is set for March 15, 2017, our sister publication 401kWire has learned.

Alex Acosta
 FIU Law
Dean
The Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions committee (HELP) will hold the hearings.

Acosta's confirmation could provide some clarity on the fate of the fiduciary reg, which still hangs in limbo. Andy Puzder, President Trump's initial nominee, withdrew his nomination less than 24 hours before he was scheduled to appear before the Senate.

Last week, Acosta met with HELP chairman Senator Lamar Alexander, who said he planned to schedule the hearing as soon as the committee received Acosta's paperwork.
