Thomas Perez

Thomas Edward "Tom" Perez (born October 7, 1961) is an American politician and Chair of the Democratic National Committee since 2017. A member of the Democrat Party, Perez was the United States Secretary of Labor under Barack Obama from 2013 to 2017. Prior to that, he served as the Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice.

Perez was backed by the Obama/Clinton faction of the Democrat Party running against Rep. Keith Ellison, who was endorsed by Bernie Sanders.

As an indicator of Perez's credibility (or lack thereof), he stated in March 2017, in a message directed at President Donald Trump, that the president "didn’t win this election."[1]

Despite his criticisms, and that of other Democrats, of President Trump for allegedly having a poor personality and using poor language, Parez has himself proudly used filthy language in political speeches, such as saying that Republicans "don't give a s***" about voters.[2] As a further sign regarding his party's hypocritical decline into using filthy language occurred when it, around the same time as Perez's comments, started selling shirts saying that "Democrats give a s*** about people."[3][4] This showed a blatant departure from Michelle Obama's "when they go low, we go high" phrase she and Democrats enjoyed using.[5]

In April 2017, Perez became the first DNC chairman to demand that members of his party strictly conform to his extreme pro-abortion positions.[6][7] His comments were so extreme that even Nancy Pelosi criticized him.[8]
