President Donald Trump named former National Labor Relations Board member R. Alexander Acosta as his new nominee for labor secretary, Bloomberg reports. Acosta — the first Hispanic Trump has chosen for his Cabinet — replaces the first nominee for the position, Andy Puzder, who withdrew his name Wednesday amid controversy over his personal life and business background. Acosta served as assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division under President George W. Bush and was US attorney for the Southern District of Florida, where he prosecuted Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff for fraud. He once clerked for then-Appeals Court judge Samuel Alito, now a US Supreme Court justice.
