WASHINGTON – The White House said on Monday it still supported moving all five of U.S. President Joe Biden’s nominees for the Federal Reserve through a key Senate committee despite opposition for one, Sarah Bloom Raskin, by Democratic Senator Joe Manchin.
White House spokesperson Jen Psaki urged Republicans to show up for a vote on Biden’s slate in the Senate Banking Committee, noting there was enough support in the committee to move forward.
