The Senate Banking Committee will hold a hearing Tuesday for Republican Hester Peirce and Democrat Lisa Fairfax, the nominees tapped by the White House in October to replace former SEC members Daniel Gallagher, a Republican, and Luis Aguilar, a Democrat.
Their nominations were delayed while the committee chairman, Richard Shelby, R-Ala., ran in a primary, which he won on March 1. Now that Ms. Peirce and Ms. Fairfax are back on track, it’s likely they’ll be approved by the panel and by the entire Senate.
