参议院确认斯蒂芬·米兰任联邦储备委员会成员，引发独立性担忧
摘要
参议院确认了总统特朗普的经济顾问斯蒂芬·米兰为联邦储备委员会成员，由于他同时担任白宫职务，引发了对美联储独立性的质疑。
美国参议院以48票对47票的党派投票结果确认了总统唐纳德·特朗普的首席经济顾问斯蒂芬·米兰为联邦储备理事会成员。阿拉斯加参议员丽莎·默科斯基是唯一反对该提名的共和党人。
米兰的任命引发了关于联邦储备独立性的争论，因为他计划在担任美联储理事会成员的同时，继续担任白宫经济顾问委员会主席。在确认听证会上，米兰表示他将从白宫职务中请无薪假，但仍保留该职务的头衔。参议院民主党领袖查克·舒默批评这一安排，称米兰“没有独立性”，将“不过是特朗普在美联储的代言人”。
米兰将完成前美联储理事阿德里安娜·库格勒未满的任期，该任期将于明年一月结束。他表示，如果被任命为更长期限，他将辞去白宫职务。历史上，被任命为美联储理事的人通常会放弃行政部门的职位，以维护中央银行的自主性。
此次确认正值美联储准备召开会议，预计将投票决定是否下调关键利率。中央银行面临着控制通胀的挑战，通胀率仍高于2%的目标，同时还需考虑最近失业率上升至4.3%的情况。
