Ummmm. This isn't what a cabinet position is for. It's ideally a position where someone has relevant work experience to run an agency or department. I don't know, maybe that's just my opinion.
In this case, Pete will be following the lead of a need for infrastructure projects from Biden (and Harris). I trust that Pete can put together a team capable of fulfilling the vision set by the White House.
