Trump to name Elaine Chao as transportation secretary
Elaine Chao, former Labor secretary and deputy transport chief, is Trump's pick for transportation secretary. The choice triggers Senate confirmation and aligns with his infrastructure push. Chao has led the Peace Corps and United Way, is married to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and would helm a 60,000-employee department with a $98 billion budget overseeing highways, rail, aviation, and transit.
