Mnuchin confirmed yesterday
Lost in all the Mike Flynn drama, Mnuchin was confirmed yesterday in a 53.47 vote.
"He will fight for middle-class tax reductions, financial reforms that open up lending and create millions of new jobs, and fiercely defend the American tax dollar and your financial security," Trump said. "And he will also defend our manufacturing jobs from those who cheat and steal and rob us blind."
Yesterday, Mnuchin hinted at using Treasury powers but a WSJ story indicated a softer approach on currencies.
"I am committed to using the full powers of this office to create more jobs, to combat terrorist activities and financing, and to make America great again," Mnuchin said.
He said he's looking forward to meeting Yellen.
It's a tradition for Treasury Secretaries to meet Fed Chairmen.
