Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) told reporters Monday night he remains opposed to Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation chair nominee Travis Hill until he receives a report detailing how the agency has addressed its longstanding sexual harassment and misconduct problems.
Kennedy announced his opposition during Hill’s nomination hearing last week. Kennedy told reporters last night he spoke to Hill, the acting FDIC chair, on Friday.
“I called Hill telling him that I was as serious as an aneurysm. I wanted the report,” Kennedy said. “I want to see the resolution of all these complaints, and he said, ‘We’re already working on it.’”
