The Senate Banking Committee advanced President Trump's nominee Kevin Warsh for Federal Reserve Chair on a 13-11 party-line vote April 29, overcoming Democratic opposition led by Sen. Elizabeth Warren and positioning the nomination for full Senate consideration before Jerome Powell's chair term expires May 15. Warsh, a former Fed Governor, affirmed the central bank's independence during April confirmation hearings amid concerns over executive influence. The Justice Department recently dropped its probe into Powell, easing transition dynamics, while Sen. John Fetterman signaled Democratic support. With a Republican Senate majority, traders eye the floor vote timeline and any holds, as historical patterns show most nominees confirmed post-committee if partisan support holds.

If Kevin Warsh is formally nominated for the role, and his nomination is then formally withdrawn, or if the Senate rejects the nomination, this market will immediately resolve to “No”.
The Senate must confirm this nominee as Chair of the Federal Reserve for this market to resolve to "Yes". Recess appointments without Senate confirmation will not count toward a "Yes" resolution. Senate confirmation of Warsh as a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors will not alone qualify.
The primary resolution source for this market is official information from the U.S. Senate; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
