“The historic confirmation of Shalanda Young to serve as Director of the Office of Management and Budget is a testament to her expertise and ability to work with anyone to accomplish big things for our country.
“Shalanda is a proven leader and a master of the federal budget process who, over the course of her extensive career as a trusted aide and widely respected staff director on the Appropriations Committee, has helped shape many of the solutions to some of the most pressing problems facing working families. I am grateful for her partnership in enacting the federal spending package signed into law today and look forward to all that we will accomplish in the coming years.
