Nomination of Michael Truncale to the U.S. District Court for Eastern Texas
May. 14, 2019
The AFL-CIO opposes the nomination of Michael Truncale for the Eastern District of Texas. Mr. Truncale has a deeply partisan record that raises very serious concerns about his ability to be open-minded and fair to all litigants. His nomination was confirmed on May 14, 2019.
