Senate Confirms New Deputy Secretary of Commerce
In a significant move this week, the Senate confirmed Paul Dabbar from New York to be the new Deputy Secretary of Commerce. Senators voted 56 in favor and 40 against his nomination.
The approval came mainly from Senate Republicans who strongly supported Dabbar’s nomination. This means that most Republicans believed he was the right person for the job, while mixed reactions came from Senate Democrats, with many deciding to oppose his confirmation.
