Senate panel to vote on treasury candidate Mnuchin Monday

Published January 28, 2017 12:21am ET



Steven Mnuchin, President Trump’s nominee for treasury secretary, will get a vote in the Senate Finance Committee Monday night, committee Chairman Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, announced Friday evening.

“Committee members and the American people heard a strong case from Steven Mnuchin on why he should be Treasury secretary,” Hatch said in a statement from his office. “His seasoned career as a financial leader equips him with the ability to steer the American economy in the right direction. And his commitment to work with Congress to reform our outdated tax code and explore ways to improve our nation’s broken infrastructure system should garner the support of my colleagues on both sides of the aisle.”
