Accountability through Confirmation Act
This bill changes the appointment process for the Director of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). It requires the President, with Senate confirmation, to appoint the director instead of the Secretary of the Treasury. The bill also sets the director's pay at Executive Schedule Level IV and includes a transition provision allowing the current director to serve until the new appointee is confirmed. These changes directly affect how FinCEN leadership is selected and compensated within the Treasury Department.
