WASHINGTON, D.C. – Following President Obama’s announcement of his intent to nominate Allan Landon to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) released the following statement:

“The Federal Reserve must continue to promote policies that serve the needs of Main Street Americans. This nomination recognizes the important role that community banks play in our economy and in every community across the country.  I look forward to meeting with Mr. Landon as the Banking Committee gives his nomination a full and fair consideration.”
