President Trump nominated Jonathan Berry as the Solicitor of Labor at the Department of Labor (DOL). If confirmed, Berry will be the chief legal officer at DOL and have the independent authority to initiate lawsuits to enforce more than 180 federal labor laws, including the Fair Labor Standards Act and Occupational Safety and Health Act. Berry is currently a managing partner at Boyden Gray & Associates PLLC. Previously, Berry served as the Acting Assistant Secretary for Policy at the Department of Labor during the first Trump administration. Berry also authored Project 2025’s section on the Department of Labor and other labor related agencies, which calls for weakening the federal minimum wage, limiting overtime eligibility, and undermining workers’ right to a union by forcing secret ballot elections.
