WASHINGTON: United States President Joe Biden has named Indian-American Neera Tanden as his Domestic Policy Adviser to help him craft and implement his domestic policy agenda.
“I am pleased to announce that Neera Tanden will continue to drive the formulation and implementation of my domestic policy, from economic mobility and racial equity to health care, immigration and education,” President Biden said, according to media reports on May 6.
Tanden replaces Susan Rice as Biden’s Domestic Policy Adviser.
“Tanden will be the first Asian-American to lead any of the three major White House policy councils in history,” President Biden said.
“As Senior Adviser and Staff Secretary, Neera oversaw decision-making processes across my domestic, economic and national security teams. She has 25 years of experience in public policy, has served three Presidents, and led one of the largest think tanks in the country for nearly a decade,” President Biden said.
