🏛️ Trump names new SEC and CFTC commissioners for the first time in a year
President Donald Trump has nominated former CFTC Commissioner Kristin Johnson and attorney Steven Levine to the SEC, and Nathan Anonick and Matthew Rowland to the CFTC, his first such picks since 2025. The SEC is currently run by just Chairman Paul Atkins and Commissioner Mark Uyeda after Hester Peirce's departure, while Chairman Mike Selig is the CFTC's only commissioner. The slate appears bipartisan, and all four need Senate committee approval and a full Senate vote.
⭐ Both agencies oversee key parts of the crypto market, so filling empty seats would broaden who shapes upcoming crypto rules and could shift the balance of future votes.
