Kevin Warsh's Fed Chair Confirmation Hearing Faces Delays Amid Senate Opposition

Kevin Warsh has submitted ethics paperwork to the Senate Banking Committee, paving the way for a potential confirmation hearing for the Federal Reserve chair position as early as the week of April 21. According to NS3.AI, the committee initially aimed for an April 16 hearing, but the timeline was missed due to delayed document delivery. Senator Thom Tillis has expressed his intention to oppose any Federal Reserve nominee until the Justice Department concludes its criminal investigation into Jerome Powell, creating a challenging situation given the committee's narrow 13-11 split.
