[White House Submits Bipartisan Nominations for CFTC and SEC Commissioners to Senate] Odaily Planet Daily reports that the White House formally submitted its bipartisan nominations for commissioners of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to the Senate on Thursday for approval. Democrat Kristin Johnson was nominated for a position at the SEC, with a term ending in 2029; Republican Steven Levine was nominated for a position at the SEC, with a term ending in 2030. Democrat Matthew Rowland was nominated for a position at the CFTC to fill a vacancy that runs until 2028; Republican Nathan Anonick was also nominated for a position at the CFTC, with a term ending in 2031.
