I am pleased that the Senate took bipartisan action today to confirm Jack Lew as our nation’s next Treasury Secretary. At this critical time for our economy and our country, there is no one more qualified for this position than Jack. As my Chief of Staff, Jack was by my side as we confronted our nation’s toughest challenges. His reputation as a master of fiscal issues who can work with leaders on both sides of the aisle has already helped him succeed in some of the toughest jobs in Washington. And I will continue to rely on his advice and sound judgment as we work to create good, middle-class jobs, provide more people with the skills those jobs require, and ensure every hardworking American can earn a decent living.

我很高兴看到今天参议院采取两党一致的行动，确认杰克·卢为我们国家的下一任财政部长。目前我们的经济和我们国家处于关键时刻，此时没有人比杰克更有资格担任这一职务。在我们面对我国最严峻的挑战之际，杰克曾作为我的办公厅主任在我身边工作。他以善于与国会两党领袖共事的财政问题高手著称，为此他已成功地处理了华盛顿一些最棘手的事务。我将继续依靠他的意见和健全的判断力，努力创造好的中产阶层的工作机会，向更多的人提供这些工作所需要的技能，并确保每一名勤劳的美国人都可以通过努力过上丰足的生活。
