The president of America's largest labor organization expressed his willingness to work with President Donald Trump during an interview Tuesday.
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said that he has been impressed by Trump on several key economic issues, particularly trade, though he considers his overall performance a "mixed bag."
Trump followed through on a campaign promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a trade deal with a dozen Asian countries. The deal was originally negotiated by the Obama administration and embraced by newly elected Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez, who served as President Obama's Labor Secretary.
