South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem will be the new secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, the third of President Donald Trump's nominees to be confirmed.
Noem earned the requisite number of votes from senators Saturday, winning confirmation with a vote of 59-34. Former U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida was confirmed to be secretary of state in a unanimous vote Monday and former Fox News Host Pete Hegseth was confirmed as secretary of defense 51-50 Friday night, with Vice President JD Vance casting the tie-breaking vote.
The confirmation votes came on the heels of Trump's second oath of office and less than a week after the nominees' respective committee hearings.
