\nHere on Freedom@Work, we’ve kept a close watch on Hilda Solis, the California Congresswoman nominated by President Obama to serve as Secretary of Labor.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\nWe’ve told you about Solis’ secret ballot hypocrisy<\/a>, her admission<\/a> that she is not "qualified" to discuss Right to Work, her refusal<\/a> to answer basic questions on key labor issues, and her position as treasurer<\/a> (which she failed to disclose to Congress) with a Big Labor lobbying group.\n<\/p>\n

\nNow USA Today<\/i> reports<\/a> that Hilda Solis is the fourth major Obama nominee to be faced with a tax scandal:\n<\/p>\n

\n

\n\tThe husband of President Obama’s Labor secretary nominee paid about $6,400 Wednesday to settle tax liens that had been outstanding for as long as 16 years against his business, the Obama administration told USA TODAY this afternoon…\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\tPersonal tax problems have tripped up three of President Obama’s nominees for top administration jobs. Two nominees withdrew on Tuesday over tax issues, including Tom Daschle, Obama’s choice head the Health and Human Services Department. The other withdrawal was chief performance officer nominee Nancy Killefer, who had a $947 tax lien filed against her in Washington four years ago for not paying unemployment compensation taxes for a household employee. She paid the debt less than six months later, District of Columbia records show.\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

But there’s more.\u00a0 According to\u00a0the report,\u00a0some of the tax liens resulted from "unpaid county health and safety permit fees<\/b>."\u00a0 And Solis has the gall to seek a position that enforces health and safety laws against workplaces across America?<\/i>\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\nMaybe Solis’ cozy relationship with Big Labor’s high command over the years has given her the false impression shared by so many union bosses that they are above the law.\u00a0 With all those special privileges such as immunity from federal prosecution for union violence and exemption from anti-monopoly laws, union bosses actually are<\/i> above the law in many respects.\u00a0 And with Solis running the Department of Labor, union chiefs would expect Solis — who voted with the AFL-CIO 100% of the time — to cut funding<\/a> to the agency which investigates union boss corruption.\n<\/p>\n

\nSolis’\u00a0indiscretions\u00a0are even more\u00a0disturbing in light of\u00a0President Obama’s recent executive orders<\/a> which would give the Secretary of Labor unprecedented authority to fire federal contractors who don’t grease the rails for coervice card check organizing.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\nThis hypocrite\u00a0aspiring to be Labor Secretary is\u00a0poised to receive\u00a0virtually unchecked power<\/a> over which\u00a0contractors get to do work funded by the nearly trillion dollar "stimulus" plan.\u00a0 Perhaps Hilda Solis should withdraw herself from consideration and get her own house in order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
