She is a fantastic economist and will bring a welcome voice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Fed raised interest rates in March for the first time since 2018, and last week delivered the first in what is expected to be a series of half-point rate hikes, double the usual size, as policymakers try to slow supercharged demand for both goods and labor.<\/p>\n<p>Cook, who will help set U.S. monetary policy with the rest of the seven-member board and the heads of the 12 regional Fed banks, is not expected to change that trajectory.<\/p>\n<p>Cook was an adviser on the transition teams for both the Biden-Harris and Obama-Biden administrations. She has written extensively about racial disparities, documenting the negative impact of anti-Black violence and gender inequality on innovation and economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Fed Board needs governors who understand how the economy works for Americans across race, gender and class, and Dr. Cook\u2019s deep expertise makes her exceptionally qualified to serve,\u201d said Michelle Holder, president of the Washington Center for Equitable Growth.<\/p>\n<p>The Senate last month confirmed Fed Governor Lael Brainard as the U.S. central bank\u2019s vice chair, with several Republicans joining Democrats to confirm her.<\/p>\n<p>Two other nominees to the Fed \u2013 Jerome Powell, renominated to his current position as the central bank\u2019s chair, and Davidson College dean of faculty Philip Jefferson, who like Cook is both Black and an economist \u2013 have bipartisan support but it is uncertain when the Senate will take up their confirmations.<\/p>\n<p>Biden plans to fill the last of the Fed board\u2019s seven seats by nominating former Treasury official Michael Barr to be the Fed\u2019s vice chair of supervision.<\/p>\n<p>His initial pick for that post, former Fed Governor Sarah Bloom Raskin, withdrew from consideration after Democrat Joe Manchin joined a united Republican front opposing her nomination.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lisa Cook, an economics professor at Michigan State University, was confirmed by the United States Senate to serve on the Federal Reserve Board on Tuesday.
