The US Senate confirmed fracking pioneer Chris Wright to lead the Department of Energy, elevating another cabinet official committed to President Trump’s agenda to “drill, baby, drill” by boosting fossil fuel production nationwide.
Wright, 59, was approved in a 59-38 vote, with both Republicans and Democrats supporting his confirmation as the next energy secretary after clearing a procedural hurdle last week on a bipartisan basis as well.
