Federal Reserve governor Michelle Bowman on Monday said the central bank should consider cutting its key interest rate as soon as its next meeting in July, underscoring deep divisions among Fed officials as they endure sharp criticism from the White House.

The Fed chair will tell lawmakers that the central bank can wait to see how President Trump’s tariffs affect the economy before lowering borrowing costs.

A top Federal Reserve official who resisted an aggressive cut last year said she is open to easing interest rates as soon as next month, in a sign support is building among policymakers for a looser monetary stance.
