美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特指出，参议员约翰·费特曼（宾夕法尼亚州民主党人）在周三将国家利益置于党派之争之上，与参议院共和党人一道投票确认唐纳德·特朗普总统提名凯文·沃什担任联邦储备系统理事会主席。
除费特曼之外，此次54票赞成、45票反对的投票严格沿党派阵线划分，共和党人投支持票，民主党人投反对票。
贝森特在周三的X平台帖子中宣称：“今天，参议院共和党人与将国家置于政党意识形态之上的民主党议员一道，确认了@POTUS提名的凯文·沃什为下一任@美联储主席。”

“沃什主席将在这个亟需问责、合理政策指引以及重拾目标感以助力引导美国经济的机构中开启新篇章。他的主席任期将为每个美国家庭在这个世界最强大的经济体中建设和成长打开大门、奠定基础，”贝森特补充道。
费特曼在周三发表的一份声明中表示：“我会见了凯文·沃什，相信他会保持透明，回应国会和公众的诉求。他承诺在设定利率时保持美联储独立性，这一点至关重要，我期待与他合作。”
“我还认为，我们非常感谢鲍威尔主席。历经多届政府和一场全球大流行病，在他稳健的领导下，美国经济一直是世界羡慕的对象。他从未违反法律，表现出色，我对他担任主席期间的服务深表感激。我鼓励他继续留在美联储理事会，想留多久就留多久，”费特曼补充道。

在其首届总统任期内，特朗普提名鲍威尔出任主席一职。随后，美国总统乔·拜登提名鲍威尔连任该职位。
特朗普近期一直毫不掩饰地批评鲍威尔。
“我的主席任期于5月15日结束后，我将继续担任一段时间的理事会成员，具体时长待定。我计划以理事身份保持低调。美联储理事会永远只有一位主席。当凯文·沃什获得确认并宣誓就职后，他将成为那位主席，”鲍威尔上个月表示。

美联储官网显示，“鲍威尔先生自2012年5月25日就职以来一直担任理事会成员，以填补未完成的任期。他于2014年6月16日获得理事会连任并宣誓就职，任期至2028年1月31日结束。”

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent indicated that Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., prioritized the nation over partisanship on Wednesday by joining with Senate Republicans in voting to confirm President Donald Trump’s nomination of Kevin Warsh to serve as Federal Reserve System Board of Governors chair.
Aside from Fetterman, the 54-45 vote was strictly along party lines, with Republicans voting for confirmation and Democrats voting against it.
“Today @SenateGOP, along with the Democrat who put country before political ideology, confirmed @POTUS’s nominee Kevin Warsh as the next Chairman of the @FederalReserve,” Bessent declared in a Wednesday post on X.

“Chairman Warsh will usher in a new day at an institution that is in need of accountability, sound policy guidance, and the renewed sense of purpose to help guide our economy. His chairmanship opens the door and lays the groundwork for every American family to build and grow in the world’s greatest economy,” Bessent added.
Fetterman said in a statement issued on Wednesday, “I’ve met Kevin Warsh and believe he will be transparent and responsive to Congress and the public. His promise to maintain Fed independence in setting interest rates is crucial and I look forward to working with him.”
“I also maintain we owe an enormous debt of gratitude to Chair Powell. Through multiple administrations and a global pandemic, our economy has been the envy of the world under his steady hand. He never broke the law, has done a remarkable job, and I’m profoundly grateful for his service as Chair. I encourage him to stay on the Fed Board as long as he wants,” Fetterman added.

During his first presidential administration, Trump nominated Powell for the chairmanship. Then, President Joe Biden tapped Powell to remain in the role for a second term.
Trump more recently has been a vociferous Powell critic.
“After my term as Chair ends on May 15, I will continue to serve as a governor for a period of time to be determined. I plan to keep a low profile as a governor. There is only ever one Chair of the Federal Reserve Board. When Kevin Warsh is confirmed and sworn in, he will be that Chair,” Powell said last month.

The Federal Reserve website notes, “Mr. Powell has served as a member of the Board of Governors since taking office on May 25, 2012, to fill an unexpired term. He was reappointed to the Board and sworn in on June 16, 2014, for a term ending January 31, 2028.”
