According to Odaily, the vote to renominate Caroline Crenshaw as a commissioner of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been canceled, potentially ending her tenure. Originally scheduled for last Wednesday, the Senate Banking Committee was set to decide on extending Crenshaw's term, which began in 2020. However, the Senate's website now indicates that the vote has been called off.
A Senate aide familiar with the situation confirmed that the vote has been scrapped and is unlikely to be rescheduled. This development significantly diminishes Crenshaw's chances of continuing as an SEC commissioner. To remain in her position, Crenshaw would need the Senate Banking Committee's approval before the current congressional session concludes. The 2024 congressional term ends on December 18. After this date, Crenshaw could still seek reappointment, but she would require approval from the new Congress, which is expected to be controlled by Republicans, making her reappointment unlikely.
