Confirm Joey R. Hopkins/Sec. of DOT.
This Senate resolution seeks to confirm Joey R. Hopkins as the Secretary of North Carolina's Department of Transportation. The bill follows the state's constitutional requirement for the Senate to provide advice and consent on the Governor's appointment of department heads. By passing this resolution, the Senate formally approves Hopkins to continue serving in the role, which the Governor had temporarily filled pending legislative action. The measure does not alter any laws or policies but serves as a procedural step to finalize the appointment process.
