President Donald Trump is considering moving U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry to a new Cabinet post, leading the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, according to multiple news reports.
The current VA secretary, David Shulkin, is under fire for taking a taxpayer-funded trip to Europe last year.
Perry, an Air Force veteran, has expressed his interest in veterans’ causes for years. Should the appointment come through, he would face Senate confirmation later this year.
