“The White House will on Wednesday nominate Shalanda Young to the position of budget director after months in which the key administration position has gone unfilled,” the Washington Post reports.
“Young has served as the acting director of the White House Office of Management and Budget since this spring, but the White House will now tap her to officially lead the agency as the administration faces multiplying challenges in implementing its economic agenda, the people said. She must be confirmed by the Senate to serve in the role, but she was confirmed to her current role by a 63-to-37 vote in March with support from more than a dozen Republicans.”
