The Trump administration is seeking an emergency order from the Supreme Court to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook .

On Thursday (September 18), Trump asked for the emergency order after an appeals court blocked his attempt earlier this week to fire Cook, per HuffPost . The appeals court ruled Monday (September 15) that Cook could remain in her post, affirming a lower court decision that found Trump's attempt to oust Cook illegal.

The president is seeking Cook's removal as part of his efforts to reshape the Fed’s seven-member governing board.
