Tim Scott isn’t expecting Democratic noms

News: The White House isn’t expected to put forward Democratic nominees to serve in minority positions at financial agencies, according to Senate Banking Committee Chair Tim Scott (R-S.C.).

In an interview Thursday, Scott said he didn’t anticipate the Trump administration would put forward Democratic names to serve on bipartisan boards at agencies like the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or US Securities and Exchange Commission.

“We’re struggling to get what we have done on the noms. I do not expect the White House to ask me for names at this point,” Scott said.
