Democrat Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) has declared that he would vote “from an open mind and an informed opinion” on President Donald Trump’s cabinet picks. ...

“I believe that it’s appropriate and the responsibility of a U.S. Senator to have a conversation with President-elect Trump’s nominees,” Fetterman wrote in his post on X.

“That’s why I met with Elise Stefanik and Pete Hegseth, just wrapped with Tulsi Gabbard, and look forward to my meetings with others soon.

“My votes will come from an open mind and an informed opinion after having a conversation with them.

“That’s not controversial, it’s my job,” Fetterman wrote.
