Confirmation hearing scheduled for Obama DOT nominee
{mosads}Foxx has met with members of the committee since the pick was announced. At least one member, Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) promised to press Foxx on allowing airline passengers to use electronic devices during take-offs and landings.
Foxx will have to be confirmed by the full Senate if his nomination is approved by the chamber’s Transportation Committee next week.
