President-elect Trump announced that he is nominating former Congressman Sean Duffy of Wisconsin, who is also a Fox News contributor and FOX Business co-host, to serve as the U.S. Secretary of Transportation.
"Sean has been a tremendous and well-liked public servant, starting his career as a District Attorney for Ashland, Wisconsin, and later elected to the U.S. House of Representatives for Wisconsin's 7th Congressional District," Trump said in his announcement on Monday. "Sean will use his experience and the relationships he has built over many years in Congress to maintain and rebuild our Nation’s Infrastructure, and fulfill our Mission of ushering in The Golden Age of Travel, focusing on Safety, Efficiency, and Innovation. Importantly, he will greatly elevate the Travel Experience for all Americans!"
While in Congress, Duffy helped advocate for fiscal responsibility, economic growth and rural development.
Duffy joined FOX News Media as a contributor in 2020. He currently serves as the co-host of FOX Business’ The Bottom Line alongside Dagen McDowell. He also provides political analysis across all FOX News Media platforms.
Prior to joining the network, Duffy served nearly nine years as a United States Congressman representing the people of Wisconsin’s Seventh Congressional District, the state’s largest district. During his time in office, he was on the Financial Services Committee and served as the Chairman of the Sub-Committee on Insurance and Housing. Previously, he was the District Attorney of Ashland County, Wisconsin where he dedicated resources to prosecuting child sex crimes. Working together with law enforcement, he established Ashland County one of the first counties in the state to investigate and prosecute child Internet sex crimes.
