Moore Would Bow Out for Federal Reserve If Needed

April 24, 2019 at 7:05 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

Stephen Moore said he was hopeful about his chances of being nominated and confirmed to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors but would bow out of the process if he became a political liability for the Trump administration or Senate Republicans, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Said Moore: “I want to help make America the most prosperous place in the world. I’m totally committed to it as long as the White House is totally committed.”
