The Senate convened and swore in Senator-elect Edward Markey (D-MA).

Members voted in favor of invoking cloture on the nomination of Richard Cordray to be Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Richard F. Griffin, Jr. to be a member of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB)

Sharon Block to be a Member of the NLRB

Mark Gaston Pearce to be a member of the NLRB

Fred Hochberg to be President of the Export-Import Bank of the United States

Thomas Edward Perez to be Secretary of Labor
