WASHINGTON D.C, December 25, 2025 – U.S. Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer extended warm holiday greetings to Americans on Christmas Day, emphasizing the importance of faith, family, and community in a video message posted from the iconic James S. Brady Press Briefing Room.
Standing before the American flag and the presidential seal, Chavez-DeRemer, dressed in a red blazer, began with a casual “Hi everyone” before delivering her remarks.
“As we celebrate the birth of Christ today, we’re reminded of the blessings of community and the importance of family,” she said. “During this special season, I hope you are able to rest, recharge, and enjoy time with your loved ones. Have a very Merry Christmas!”
The 51-second video, shared on her official X account (@SecretaryLCD), quickly garnered positive responses from supporters, with many reciprocating holiday wishes and expressing appreciation for her service in the Trump administration.
Chavez-DeRemer, a former Oregon congresswoman sworn in as the 30th Secretary of Labor earlier this year, has focused on policies promoting “American Workers First.” Her Christmas message aligns with broader holiday communications from Trump administration officials, highlighting themes of gratitude and togetherness amid a busy year of policy implementation.
The post reflects a tradition of cabinet members using social media to connect personally with the public during national holidays. As of late Christmas Day, the video had accumulated thousands of views and dozens of supportive replies.
