With this historically diverse slate of nominees, Dr. Jefferson becomes the second Black man to serve as the Board\u2019s vice chair, the number two role of the influential institution shaping monetary policies. Dr. Cook\u2019s renomination to a full 14-year term continues her role as the first Black woman to serve on the Fed and is an acknowledgment of her expert contributions to the Board as a renowned macroeconomist as the nation continues to grapple with inflation. Also, Dr. Adriana Kugler is the first Latina to serve on the Federal Reserve in its 109-year history and will bring a strong background in labor to the Fed\u2019s critically important mandate of maximum employment,\u201d said <strong>Nikitra Bailey, NFHA\u2019s Executive Vice President<\/strong>. \u201cToo many families in our country continue to struggle, especially in underserved communities of color and rural communities. The leaders confirmed today have the professional backgrounds that will make them much-needed voices for an inclusive economy as the Federal Reserve tackles pressing issues, such as rising interest rates, employment and the state of our financial institutions. President Biden has put forth leaders with diverse experiences and expertise and who understand the kitchen-table issues facing everyday people that will positively impact the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, small businesses, workers and families for many years to come.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"content-wrap-item post__paragraph has-text-align-center\">###&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"content-wrap-item post__paragraph has-text-align-left\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nationalfairhousing.org\/\">The National Fair Housing Alliance (NFHA)<\/a><\/strong> <em>is the country\u2019s only national civil rights organization dedicated solely to eliminating all forms of housing and lending discrimination and ensuring equal opportunities for all people.
