During Thursday morning's Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs confirmation hearing, Senator Elizabeth Warren announced her decision to vote against President Donald Trump's Cabinet nominee Eric Scott Turner for HUD Secretary.
Senator Warren expressed her concerns about the lack of an FBI background check for the nominee, emphasizing the importance of following committee precedent and common-sense practices. She stated, 'We're not trying to delay this vote by a single minute, but we are asking that we have this baseline principle in this committee.'
