“this week, the Senate Banking Committee-- the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs--advanced the nomination of Michelle ``Miki'' Bowman to be the Vice Chair for Supervision at the Federal Reserve. Miki Bowman is my constituent. She is a Kansan, a native of Morris County. Miki has deep roots in rural America. After graduating from the University of Kansas, followed by Washburn University's Law School, she came to Washington, DC, working across Capitol Hill and the executive branch. Like many good Kansans, Miki eventually found her way back home, and she became the vice president at Farmers and Drovers Bank, a community bank in Council Grove, KS. That occurred in 2010. In 2017, Miki became the Kansas State bank commissioner, where she was responsible for overseeing hundreds of State-chartered banks, trust companies, money transmitters, and other nondepository entities. When President Trump chose Miki to serve as the community bank representative on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, it was clear she was a great choice, the right choice to give small lenders and rural communities a voice at the Fed. Not only did Miki exceed the qualifications for the position set by law, but her time living and working in rural Kansas helped guide her decision making.…”
