Former North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum confirmed by Senate as President Trump’s new secretary of the interior


Former North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum has been confirmed by the Senate to lead the Department of the Interior under President Trump. Bipartisan support led to a 78-18 vote in favor of Burgum’s Cabinet nomination. Senate Majority Leader John Thune praised Burgum’s commitment to protecting America’s natural resources and leveraging them for a prosperous future. Senator Kevin Cramer described Burgum as “tailor-made” for the role of interior secretary due to his leadership in North Dakota. Burgum, known for his business-oriented and data-driven approach, will play a crucial role in implementing Trump’s energy agenda and overseeing federal land management. As interior secretary, Burgum will be responsible for managing federal land, energy development, and leading the National Energy Council.

Additionally, Trump has appointed Burgum to lead the newly established National Energy Council, aimed at coordinating all departments and agencies involved in American energy production. The Senate also advanced the nominations of Energy Secretary-designate Christopher Wright and Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary-designate Doug Collins for a final vote next week. Burgum’s confirmation highlights his experience and leadership qualities that make him well-suited to lead the Department of the Interior and play a key role in shaping America’s energy policies.
