Speaking of Hells yes, Hilda Solis is to be Obama's Labor Secretary. And remember how I said that "Concern for, and a desire for serious and urgent solutions to, climate change seems to be the factor unifying much of Obama's cabinet"? Well, "Solis brings a reputation as one of Washington's leading proponents of green jobs."
She's also a fierce supporter of workers, even going so far as to take money out of her campaign warchest to fund a signature-gathering campaign for an initiative to raise the California minimum wage. Her appointment also brings white men to a mere 46.7% of Obama's cabinet.
