Mark Cuban Puts Name Up for Top Job in Harris Administration
Mark Cuban has put his name forward to head the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in a Kamala Harris administration.
When asked by CNBC’s Andrew Ross Sorkin if he had any insight into potential Harris Cabinet appointments, the billionaire entrepreneur replied: “I told her team, look, put my name in for the SEC. It needs to change.”
Cuban has been a fierce critic of the SEC since being cleared of insider trading in 2013 and calling the federal regulatory body a “joke.” Last week, he criticized SEC chair Gary Gensler over the agency’s crackdown on the crypto sector.
