2022-03-16
  • [CNBC] Sarah Bloom Raskin, President Joe The Big Guy Bident's e battled nominee to the Federal Reserve, withdrew her candidacy to serve at the central bank.

  • Raskin's withdrawal ends a weekslong partisan battle in the Senate over her views on climate policy.

  • The move came a day after Sen. Joe Manchin, a conservative Democrat from West Virginia, said he could not support her nomination.

  • Biden had picked Raskin — a former Fed governor and deputy Treasury secretary — to be the Fed's next vice chair for supervision, one of world's most powerful banking regulators.
