U.S. Rep. Kevin Kiley has expressed strong reservations Julie Su’s nomination for labor secretary, and he hasn’t changed his mind. Also, load posts increased last week. If things continue to track to 2019 levels, then DAT expects it’ll see similar load volumes for the next couple of weeks. We’ll get the details from Robert Rouse of DAT in today’s Market Update.
