On February 1, 2017, the US Senate Finance Committee approved the nomination of Steven Mnuchin to serve as Secretary of the Treasury, overruling an attempt by Senate Democrats to stall the nomination vote by boycotting the committee hearing by temporarily suspending committee rules that require at least one Democratic committee member to be present to conduct business. The full US Senate is expected to vote on his nomination the week of February 6th.
