Trump makes first mark on Fed as Senate approves key nominee
President Donald Trump officially made his first mark on the Federal Reserve on Thursday, when the Senate voted 65-32 to approve his first and only nominee to the central bank’s board.
Randal Quarles, a private equity investor and veteran of the Treasury Department, will also take over as the Fed's top banking regulator as the first appointee to the position of vice chairman of supervision, a role created by the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act.
