Today, U.S Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, released the following statement on Brian Deese's nomination to be the Deputy Director of the Office of Management and Budget.
"President Obama has made another strong choice when it comes to creating jobs here in the United States with the nomination of Brian Deese to be Deputy Director of the Office of Management and Budget.
"Brian has played a key role in the Administration's work over the past six years pulling our economy back from the Great Recession, making sure key American industries remained healthy and strong, and investing in policies that boosted the economy and created millions of new jobs.
"I look forward to hearing from Brian when he appears before the Budget Committee about his plans to help OMB continue working to tackle our economic and fiscal challenges in a balanced way that works for families across the country."
