The White House has submitted nominees for the CFTC and SEC to the Senate for confirmation.

The White House formally submitted bipartisan nomination lists for the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to the Senate on Thursday, pending approval. The move comes after last week’s midterm election losses, as President Donald Trump’s Republican Party is set to lose control of the Senate next January. Democratic nominee Kristin Johnson has been tapped for an SEC commissioner seat, with a term expiring in 2029. She previously served as a CFTC commissioner, appointed by then-Democratic President Joe Biden. Another SEC nominee announced Thursday is Republican Steven Levine, who will serve as an SEC commissioner with a term ending in 2030. Democrat Matthew Rowland is nominated as a CFTC commissioner to fill a vacant seat with a remaining term expiring in 2028. Republican Nathan Anonick is also nominated for a CFTC commissioner post, with a term expiring in 2031.
