Washington – Today, Congresswoman King-Hinds congratulated the confirmation of two Trump cabinet appointees: Doug Burgum, for Secretary of the Interior, and Sean Duffy, for Secretary of Transportation. 

“I am excited for the opportunity to work with Secretaries Burgum and Duffy,” said Congresswoman King-Hinds. “By collaborating with them, I believe we can make much-needed improvements to the CNMI.”

Secretary Burgum was confirmed by the U.S. Senate today, while Secretary Duffy’s confirmation took place earlier this week.
