Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen will be on Capitol Hill starting Tuesday, giving her first congressional testimony since President Trump took office. Trump criticized Yellen during the campaign, accusing her of keeping interest rates low “for political reasons.”

Here & Now’s Meghna Chakrabarti speaks with Jill Schlesinger (@jillonmoney), CBS News business analyst and host of “Jill on Money” and the podcast “Better Off,” about what changes we can expect at the Fed during the Trump administration.
