More Votes Expected for President Trump’s Cabinet Picks
More votes are expected this week on President Trump’s cabinet picks.
FOX’s Rachel Sutherland reports from Washington:
The U.S. Senate is expected to take a procedural vote on Rex Tillerson’s nomination for Secretary of State this afternoon, clearing the way for a final vote as soon as Wednesday.
The upper chamber is also expected to take a final vote on Elaine Chao’s nomination to be Transportation Secretary this week. Attorney General-designate Jeff Sessions will get a vote in a Senate committee this week, as will other cabinet nominees.
Democrats who are upset over President Trump’s recent immigration orders will likely kick up a new fuss over some of his picks, potentially slowing down the confirmation process.
