Biden picks Pete Buttigieg, 38, as transportation secretary - making him most senior gay official confirmed by Senate

2020-12-17

[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Buttigieg, 38, the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, who has never held federal office

He was surprisingly strong in the early stages of the Democratic primary and a formidable fundraiser

If confirmed he would become first openly gay cabinet secretary confirmed by the senate

Trump appointed Richard Grenell as acting director of national intelligence making him first openly gay cabinet member but did not nominate him

Got that box checked...

In time this will become the 'most gay senior official' tag.
