WASHINGTON, D.C. – House Ways and Means Chairman Kevin Brady (R-TX) today released the following statement after President-elect Donald Trump announced his intent to nominate Steven Mnuchin to be the next Secretary of the Treasury.

“I look forward to working with Steven Mnuchin as our next Treasury Secretary,” said Chairman Brady. “With a long history in the private sector, he understands what policies work for businesses—small and large—to create jobs, increase families’ paychecks, and grow our economy. After years of slow economic growth, Mr. Mnuchin will play a key role in delivering the bold economic policies Americans deserve.”
