Excerpts from the Washington Post:
On Tuesday, Elaine Chao was confirmed as secretary of Transportation. … But unanimity was not to be.
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., voted no, as did Democratic Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand, N.Y., Jeff Merkley, Ore., Elizabeth Warren, Mass., Cory Booker, N.J., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
The vote was 93 to 6, with one senator voting present.
