After wrapping up the second impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump, the Senate on Saturday agreed to take up Vilsack’s nomination for Agriculture secretary one week from today.


— The exact time is TBD, but the chamber plans to debate the nomination for just 20 minutes before taking a vote.
— It should continue to be smooth sailing for Vilsack, who breezed through his confirmation hearing and was promptly approved by the Senate Ag panel on a voice vote.
