The Senate is set to vote on Tuesday to confirm President Donald Trump's nominee, Sean Duffy, as the new Secretary of Transportation. Duffy, a former congressman from Wisconsin, received overwhelming support in a preliminary vote on Monday, with a margin of 97-0, indicating strong bipartisan backing for his confirmation.
During his appearance before the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee earlier this month, Duffy outlined his key priorities for the Transportation Department. These include enhancing aviation and highway safety measures, addressing the shortage of air traffic controllers, and restoring trust in aircraft manufacturer Boeing following recent controversies.
