Washington, D.C. - United States Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee released the following statement:
"On the same day that the Senate is voting to advance Trump's nominee to be his sock puppet at the Federal Reserve, the Fed is meeting to decide on interest rates. One man continues to stand in the way of lower interest rates and lower costs: Donald Trump. First, his chaotic tariffs and reckless economic policies hammered the job market and raised prices. And now, his war with Iran is driving costs even higher. The President is boxing out the Fed - and American families are paying the price."
