WASHINGTON — The Senate Banking Committee has postponed Tuesday's scheduled confirmation hearing of Mark McWatters to the NCUA board of directors due to inclement weather.
A new hearing date has not yet been determined, according to a Senate Banking Committee spokesman.
If confirmed, McWatters would succeed Republican Michael Fryzel, whose six-year term on the NCUA board expired Aug. 2, 2013. McWatters would join Chairman Debbie Matz and Richard Metsger, both Democrats.
McWatters is assistant dean for graduate programs and an adjunct professor at the Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law.
He previously served as counsel to U.S. Representative Jeb Hensarling (R-TX), now chairman of the House Financial Services Committee.
