The Fed will hold its interest rate meeting on September 16th and 17th, and is expected to deliver its first rate cut since December. Last week, Milan secured Republican support by offering a series of assurances, both privately and publicly, that he supports the Feds independence in monetary policy, rather than following President Trumps orders. Barring unforeseen circumstances, the committee is expected to approve the nomination, sending the matter to the full Senate for a vote. Senate Republican leaders will then have several days to push through the necessary procedural votes to clear hurdles and complete the confirmation process. Only four Republican senators need to defect during the full Senate vote to veto the nomination.
