Julie A. Su (born February 19, 1969)[1] is an American attorney and government official who is serving as acting United States Secretary of Labor since 2023[2] and the 37th United States Deputy Secretary of Labor since 2021. Before assuming that post, Su was the California Labor Secretary, serving under Governor Gavin Newsom from 2019 to 2021,[3] and was the California Labor Commissioner, overseeing California's Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE), under Governor Jerry Brown from 2011 to 2018.[4][5]

She is serving as acting secretary of labor since March 11, 2023 following the departure of incumbent Marty Walsh from the role.[6][7] In February 2023, President Joe Biden officially nominated Su to be his permanent appointee to fill the position.[8] Since her nomination, Su's confirmation has stalled in the Senate; however, the Biden administration plans on keeping Su in an acting capacity which the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has allowed.[9]
