RepubliCon Senator Grassley, Chair of the Senate Finance Committee, wants to see the tax returns of President-Elect Biden's nominee for Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellan, before "arriving at a decision."
Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) said Monday that he thinks Janet Yellen, Bidens choice for treasury secretary, would get a favorable view in the Senate, but noted that senators would need to review Yellens tax returns before arriving at a decision.
Grassley is chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, which is responsible for holding hearings on nominees for treasury secretary.
Grassley said that his panel must examine Yellens tax returns and other financial information before he can make a determination, according to Bloomberg News.

(21,712 posts)If Trump can staff his White House with "Acting" Secretaries and "Acting" Directors, Biden can, too.
We need to move ahead. Without Republicans, if need be.
We just lost four years with zero (and less) progress toward solving America's problems.
This is the time to play catch up.
