Four former secretaries of Housing and Urban Development have endorsed Ben Carson, Donald Trump's nominee for the HUD post.
The bipartisan endorsement came in a letter to Sen. Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, chairman of the Committee on Banking, House and Urban affairs. It was signed by former HUD secretaries Henry Cisneros, Mel Martinez, Alphonso Jackson and Steven Preston.
"We write today, from both sides of the political aisle, in support of Dr. Ben Carson's nomination as Secretary for Housing and Urban Development, a position we have all held," the four said in the letter.
"As secretary, we know that Dr. Carson will learn about what works, develop new innovations, measure outcomes, and achieve real results to improve communities throughout America.
"We urge the Committee to support Dr. Carson's confirmation."
