Trump selects Sean Duffy as Transportation Secretary despite limited experience
President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Sean Duffy, a former congressman and Fox Business host, as the next Transportation Secretary. Duffy, who served in Congress from 2011 to 2019, has limited experience in transportation. Duffy will oversee the Department of Transportation, which manages safety and efficiency in travel. He will take over from Pete Buttigieg, who has held the position since February 2021. Duffy's appointment comes as the department faces various challenges, including aviation safety issues and labor union threats. He has previously worked in political commentary and has connections to industries relevant to transportation.
