WASHINGTON – Following the overwhelming results in the 2024 U.S. Election, the American Securities Association (ASA) called on Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gensler to immediately step down.
“Last night the people voted for this country to take a new direction, and Chairman Gensler should respect that vote by stepping down from his position immediately. This is the only way for America’s working families, retirement savers, and small businesses to rebuild their trust and confidence in the institution of the SEC,” said ASA President and CEO Chris Iacovella.
