Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett tweeted that Gary Gensler, Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), is under investigation by top Republican lawmakers for alleged political bias in hiring practices. Jim Jordan, Patrick McHenry, and James Comer sent a letter to Gensler demanding documents related to SEC hiring, firing, and other related decisions, particularly details about political background assessments. It is believed that the SEC may be violating the law by making hiring decisions based on personal political leanings. The lawmakers have requested the relevant materials by September 24th to further review the legality of the SEC's hiring process. (decrypt)
