特朗普寻求在即将召开的政策会议前罢免联储理事丽莎·库克

摘要

总统唐纳德·特朗普已请求联邦上诉法院允许在美联储即将召开的政策会议前解除联储理事丽莎·库克职务,理由是涉及抵押贷款欺诈的指控。

总统唐纳德·特朗普已向哥伦比亚特区联邦上诉法院提交请愿,要求允许在联邦公开市场委员会(FOMC)定于下周召开的会议之前罢免联邦储备理事丽莎·库克。此请求紧随美国地方法院法官贾·科布(Jia Cobb)最近作出的初步禁令,该禁令阻止在库克针对政府提起的诉讼进行期间解除其职务。

政府方面的此举基于对库克2021年涉及房产交易的抵押贷款欺诈指控,该事件发生在她2022年被任命为联储理事之前。库克否认这些指控,并认为罢免她的尝试具有政治动机,源于她在货币政策上的立场。

包括库克在内的FOMC计划于9月16日至17日召开会议,讨论可能的利率调整。政府方面辩称,库克的参与可能影响委员会的决策,尤其是在特朗普总统一直主张降息以刺激经济增长的背景下。

科布法官的裁决强调了联邦储备独立性的重要性,指出针对库克的指控涉及其任职前的行为,且根据《联邦储备法》的“有因”条款,这些指控不足以构成罢免理由。

此案引发了关于总统对独立联邦机构权力范围及罢免任命官员法律标准的重大疑问。案件结果可能对联邦储备的自主权及其在制定货币政策中的作用产生更广泛的影响。
