Strong experience in private, public and nonprofit sectors
When President George W. Bush nominated Elaine L. Chao, the first Asian-American woman appointed to a President’s cabinet in U. S. history, he described her as an individual with “strong executive talent, compassion, and commitment to
helping people build better lives.” Her experiences and skills as an executive and leader in the private, public and nonprofit sectors uniquely qualify her to head the U.S. Department of Labor.
