(Adds details on COVID-19 housing aid, confirmation hearing remarks) WASHINGTON, March 10 (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate voted to confirm Democratic Representative Marcia Fudge as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, giving President Joe Biden another cabinet member focused strongly on reducing economic inequalities. The Senate voted 66-34 in favor of Fudge’s nomination, with all Democrats and independents and 16 Republicans voting in favor of the Ohio congresswoman who has sometimes made incendiary remarks about Republicans. Fudge, 68, during her confirmation hearing called for more housing aid to help tens of millions of people who are behind on rent and 3 million homeowners currently in forbearance or delinquent on their mortgages due to the coronavirus pandemic.
