US Senate votes to confirm Trump nominee to head Transportation Department

The U.S. Senate voted 77 to 22 on Tuesday to confirm former Representative Sean Duffy to head the U.S. Transportation Department.

President Donald Trump's pick says Boeing needs "tough love" to get back on track after a 2024 mid-air emergency and vowed not to approve additional 737 MAX production until the planemaker makes safety improvements. Duffy will oversee billions of dollars in unspent infrastructure funds and told lawmakers an ongoing safety probe into Tesla will continue when he takes office.
