Trump Endorses House Budget Bill; Labor Sec. Nominee Lori Chavez-DeRemer Testifies at Senate Hearing
President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he supports the House of Representatives’s budget bill that would fund several of his policy initiatives, instead of a two-bill plan proffered by the Senate.
Trump’s nominee to lead the Department of Labor, Lori Chavez-DeRemer, appeared before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions on Wednesday—the first step in her confirmation process. During her term as a congresswoman, Chavez-DeRemer’s voting record earned her strong union support.
The Senate voted to confirm Kelly Loeffler as head of the Small Business Administration, with a final vote count of 52 to 46. This marks the 18th member of Trump’s cabinet to be confirmed, with four nominees left.
