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.
jchatterleyCNN I have not seen one Tweet about COVID-19 relief. Most Americans are most interesting in that topic.

jchatterleyCNN But he still refuses to answer questions! Wake up CNN! You are betraying us in the worst way possible!
jchatterleyCNN I feel like if I click on this video, she's just going to say, 'Because Yellin and Biden are not idiots'.
jchatterleyCNN Not my president, not anybody's president, Joe Biden is a murderous Thief. Get ready for the foreign wars that are coming.
jchatterleyCNN What decadence! Americans fraudulently elected a pedophile to the White House.
Finally we can have a President and a cabinet surrounded by qualified and educated personnel, not by unfit and unqualified people and unfit family members

Great choice. trump would have picked his dentist. During his failed “presidency” he chose some of the most unqualified people to join his administration. It’s very clear to see why he went chapter 11 multiple times.

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. 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
