President Donald Trump nominates Neil Jacobs to head NOAA

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Meanwhile President Trump has nominated Meteorologist Neil Jacobs to head the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Jacobs served as acting NOAA administrator during Trump’s first term in 2020.
He was nominated that same year to become the full-time administrator, but did not receive a full Senate vote.
If confirmed by the Senate, Jacobs could face attempts to disband the federal agency.
That idea was recommended in the conservative proposal “Project 2025.”
