President-elect Joe Biden will choose Janet Yellen, former chair of the Federal Reserve, as his secretary of the Treasury, according to a source. She would be the first woman in the role.

Yellen, who will be the first woman to hold the job should she be confirmed by the Senate, will be tasked to lead Biden's economic response to the coronavirus pandemic, which has wreaked havoc on the economy and led millions of Americans to lose their jobs. She will also be asked to make good on the former vice president's campaign promise to narrow the economic divide between rich and poor in the United States.

President Donald Trump opted not to renominate Yellen during his first year in office, instead nominating Jerome Powell to take the top job.Biden had said that his pick to be Treasury secretary would attract broad support from different corners of the Democratic Party."You'll soon hear my choice for Treasury, either just before or just after Thanksgiving," Biden told reporters in November.

jchatterleyCNN this is terrible news

jchatterleyCNN nytimes washingtonpost MSNBC Agree with ewarren. The 2nd most inspiring appt by Joe Biden, the 1st being picking Kamala Harris as his running mate. Yellen would be outstanding. As a progressive, am happy. Biden needs to then appoint younger leaders to work & learn from her.

Biden took a look at the Trump administration and said, 'Yeah, we're gonna do everything the exact same that led to a Trump administration'. Seems like rock solid reasoning to me.

President Trump built a great wall. Treasonous media planned a great fall. If we don't stand together as free men. USA may never be together again! 1913 - the year America and economies reliant on the $ lost their independence. The Federal Reserve Planet of Earth.

Happy Dance!

Joe Biden treats women and black people like kindergarten children.

Biden and Harris choosing the right people. 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
