Sen. Paul Schedules Mullin Hearing for Next Week

The first confirmation hearing for Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., who was named by President Donald Trump to run the Department of Homeland Security, is set for Wednesday, March 18.

"We're shooting for a week from Wednesday if all the paperwork comes in," Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Chair Rand Paul, R-Ky., told reporters Monday.

Trump has said he hopes Mullin will be confirmed at the end of the month, and Republican leadership is trying to get him confirmed as quickly as possible.
