Austan Goolsbee: The decrease in inflation ‘might not be as rapid as everyone wants’<\/h2>\n

Economists Austan Goolsbee and Kevin Hassett weigh in on the current rate of inflation on ‘WSJ at Large.’<\/p>\n

The White House is looking at former Obama economic adviser and newly-appointed Chicago Federal Reserve chief Austan Goolsbee as a possible option to replace Lael Brainard as vice chair of the Federal Reserve, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The outlet cited sources familiar with the situation, but the Biden administration has remained publicly mum on who might be in the running so far. <\/p>\n

When asked by FOX Business about prospective Brainard replacements, a White House official said, "We will move quickly to nominate someone for the Fed vice chair seat in the near future but don’t have anyone to preview at this time."<\/p>\n

Goolsbee, 53, served as chair of the Council of Economic Advisers under President Obama from 2010 to 2011 and was a professor at the University of Chicago for several years before he took the helm as president and chief executive of the Chicago Fed last month.<\/p>\n

Although Goolsbee served under the Obama-Biden administration previously, he has not been in lockstep with President Biden's economic agenda. <\/p>\n

The former top White House adviser's responses to a University of Chicago poll of economists shows he has disagreed with several of the Biden administration's initiatives, including student debt relief, electric vehicle tax credits and a windfall tax for the oil industry.<\/p>\n
