WASHINGTON, D.C. (WRN) — The former Wisconsin congressman tapped by president-elect Trump to lead the US Department of Transportation has a hearing before a congressional committee today.
Trump picked Sean Duffy in November as his pick to serve as Secretary of Transportation. If confirmed, the Hayward native and Fox News host would oversee a department with some 55,000 employees and oversight of the nation’s transportation systems.
Duffy will be questioned about his qualifications by members of the Senate Commerce Committee, chaired by Texas Republican Ted Cruz.
