The Senate voted to install one of President Trump’s top economic advisers at the central bank, opening the door for him to cast a vote at this week’s meeting to set interest rates.

Miran's fast-tracked confirmation comes as Trump has also moved to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook from the board of the central bank.

Miran said he will take a leave of absence from his job as White House economics adviser while serving on the Fed, an arrangement criticized by Democrats.
