Obama nominates deputy at the Treasury Department

In the face of mounting criticism of his administration’s failure to address the unfilled treasury positions, Obama finally starts hiring.

    President Barack Obama has announced a deputy for Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner as the White House looks to add senior officials to help the government’s effort to aid the staggering economy.

    Obama on Monday announced Neal Wolin as deputy treasury secretary. The White House also announced that Lael Brainard would be the department’s top official for international affairs and that Stuart Levey would stay on as the top counter terrorism official.

    Their appointments round out four of the five top jobs at treasury, if the Senate confirms them.

    Many jobs at the department have gone unfilled, leading to criticism of the administration.
