The Senate confirmed Howard Lutnick on Tuesday to serve as President Donald Trump’s U.S. Secretary of Commerce.
Lutnick passed his procedural vote last week after the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee voted 16-12 to motion for cloture on February 5. Deirdre Heavey is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
Lutnick said he aligns with Trump's "trade and tariff agenda" which seeks to remedy trade imbalances by imposing reciprocal tariffs. His confirmation indicates a milestone for Trump's "America First" policy agenda.
