Trump Plays it Safe with Labor Stats Pick

President Trump has nominated a veteran economist to head the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a move that’s about as surprising as a politician saying they’re ‘fighting for the people’. Matsumoto’s the name, and getting confirmed by the Senate is the next hurdle. It’s not like it’s a done deal or anything, but let’s be real, it’s not like the Senate’s going to give Trump a hard time over this one.

The Nomination Process

So, what’s next? Matsumoto’s nomination heads to the Senate for confirmation. It won’t be a quick process, but it’s not like it’s going to be a wild ride either. Don’t expect any major surprises – this is a straightforward pick, and it’s likely to get the nod from the Senate without too much fuss.
