Corker Statement on Pudzer Nomination

Statement

U.S. Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) released the following statement after Andy Puzder withdrew his nomination for secretary of labor.

"More than three years ago, I had the opportunity to assist Governor Haslam in recruiting Andy Puzder to the Volunteer State, and we are fortunate that he and his company now call Tennessee home," said Corker. "Andy's career as a successful businessman and deep knowledge of economic and labor issues made him well-qualified to serve as secretary of labor, but I respect his decision and know he will continue to be an important voice on issues that directly impact American workers."
