Fed Nominee Warsh Submits Paperwork for Senate Hearing Approval

AI Summary

Kevin Warsh, nominated for Federal Reserve chair, has submitted his financial disclosures to the Senate, moving closer to a confirmation hearing. A prior plan for the hearing was delayed due to paperwork issues. Warsh must also submit answers to questions from the Senate Banking Committee; once received, the Senate can formally schedule the hearing, likely for next week. Uncertainty remains as Senator Thom Tillis may block final approval until a federal criminal investigation involving current Fed Chair Jerome Powell is resolved.
