President-elect Joe Biden is expected to announce his Treasury Secretary nominee and other top White House economic advisers likely right after Thanksgiving, officials familiar with the matter say.
In a history-making decision he’s expected to select the first woman to fill the post.
The two leading contenders for the post are former Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen, and current Federal Reserve Governor Lael Brainard, two people familiar with the matter tell CNN.
This story just makes me think of how I’ve always admired the triumph of strong women. I was raised by them and they have shaped my impression of how women should be represented. That appreciation is what drew my attention to this story.
