The White House is preparing for Trump's nomination of Miran to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.
Stephen Ira Miran currently serves as the Chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers. Miran is known for his criticism of Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, advocating for a reduction in the independence of the Fed and strengthening the President's influence over the central bank, even suggesting that the President should have the authority to "remove" members of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors "at any time."
