Out LGBT candidates have been shut out of President-elect Barack Obama’s Cabinet, with the final spot of labor secretary reportedly being offered to U.S. Rep. Hilda Solis, D-Calif. Mary Beth Maxwell, the out founding executive director for American Rights at Work, was said to be among the contenders for the labor post. “As we talk about either keeping or renewing America’s promise, which the president-elect has been talking about, apparently it does not yet extend to gay and lesbian people in the Cabinet of the president,” said Chuck Wolfe, president and CEO of The Victory Fund.
