The White House sent four bipartisan nominations to the United States Senate on Thursday evening for key regulatory roles at the SEC and CFTC. The submissions arrive ahead of January, when the Republican Party is set to lose control of the chamber following midterm election losses. Securing confirmations before the political shift remains a primary objective for the administration.
