What happened
Lawyers for Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook stated that if a planned White House hearing regarding allegations against her is objective, it will demonstrate that she did not commit mortgage fraud and leave no case to remove her. Lawyers Abbe Lowell and Norm Eisen said they engaged with the White House to evaluate if the proposed process is genuine or merely a procedural exercise.
