Jonathan McKernan confirmed as Treasury under secretary
"The Senate on Tuesday confirmed Jonathan McKernan as under secretary for domestic finance at the U.S. Department of the Treasury. It is an honor to continue my career in public service to the American people as under secretary of domestic finance, McKernan said in a statement. I want to thank President Trump and Secretary Bessent for their confidence in me to further the economic agenda of this administration as we look to accelerate this nation's sustainable economic growth."
"Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent commented that McKernan's credentials make him an ideal leader for Treasury's domestic finance portfolio. He will play an instrumental role in strengthening our economy by clawing back the government overreach and excess that defined previous administrations. I look forward to working with him as we lay the economic foundation for America's Golden Age, Bessent added. McKernan was rumored to be the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) new leader back in February, but his nomination did not result in any action."
