Arizona Treasurer Jeff DeWit ended speculation about a potential U.S. Senate run by accepting a job with the Trump administration in Washington, D.C.
As first reported by The Arizona Republic, the White House announced DeWit’s nomination to be chief financial officer of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
The job requires Senate confirmation. DeWit told Capitol Times he expects the process to take three to six months, and he won’t be stepping down as treasurer until he’s confirmed.
