The head of the Senate Banking Committee urges for a change in leadership at the FDIC after a damning report surfaces.

Brown didn't directly ask for FDIC Chair Martin Gruenberg, appointed by President Joe Biden, to step down. Instead, he stated on Monday morning, "There needs to be significant alterations at the FDIC."
