Leader: Senate must act to keep the Fed independent

美國總統川普提名政治盟友茱蒂•謝爾頓爲聯邦準備理事會委員,如果她獲任命,將令人擔憂美聯準的獨立性。

Donald Trump has tried repeatedly to undermine the independence of the Federal Reserve. Some of his previous, ill-advised, nominations to the board of governors have foundered. One of his latest, Judy Shelton, an economic adviser to the president, poses a renewed threat. Appointing her would have worrying implications for the world’s dominant central bank, and for the power of US institutions in the face of a president who feels unconstrained by traditional checks and balances.
