A former aide to former U.S. Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer, President Donald Trump’s nominee for labor secretary, is being sought in an alleged break-in Tuesday at a congressional office building, Fox News has learned. 

The U.S. Capitol Police are searching for the unidentified former aide to the Oregon Republican.

“Lori has worked tirelessly with both Business and Labor to build America’s workforce, and support the hardworking men and women of America,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform at the time. 

“I look forward to working with her to create tremendous opportunity for American Workers, to expand Training and Apprenticeships, to grow wages and improve working conditions, to bring back our Manufacturing jobs.”

The one-term Republican lost her re-election bid in November to Democrat Janelle Bynum. Chavez-DeRemer is scheduled to testify before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Wednesday.
