President-elect Donald Trump’s choice of Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer to lead the Labor Department could signal a break from the Republican party’s traditionally adversarial stance toward unions, the Wall Street Journal reports. Chavez-DeRemer is one of just three Republican co-sponsors of the 2023 Protecting the Right to Organize Act, a bill backed by 215 congressional Democrats that would expand workers’ collective-bargaining rights and supersede state right-to-work laws. Her nomination was praised by the Teamsters, which broke from other labor unions by not endorsing the Democratic presidential candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris. But the AFL-CIO, while acknowledging the “pro-labor record” of Chavez-DeRemer, cautioned: “Donald Trump is the President-elect of the United States—not Rep. Chavez-DeRemer—and it remains to be seen what she will be permitted to do as Secretary of Labor in an administration with a dramatically anti-worker agenda.”

Hello this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
