President Biden of the United States nominated one of the ministerial posts, Mr. Neera Tanden, who was nominated as the director of the Office of Management and Budget, as writing on Twitter in the past became a problem and it became difficult to approve in Congress. Withdrawn.


This is the first time that ministerial personnel have been withdrawn since the inauguration of the administration.

The White House announced on the 2nd that President Biden has withdrawn his nomination after being offered to decline by Mr. Neera Tanden, who had been nominated as the director of the Office of Management and Budget.



Mr. Tanden, the director of a Democratic think tank, is an Indian-American woman whose nomination for a ministerial post was one of the Biden administration's symbols of diversity.



However, it was questioned that Mr. Tanden had made an aggressive post on Twitter against the members of the ruling and opposition parties in the past, and while the ruling and opposition parties were fighting against each other in the Senate, which approves the nomination, the ruling and Democratic parties. There was some disagreement, and it was difficult to approve it.



This is the first time President Biden has withdrawn his nomination for ministerial personnel.



President Biden said in a statement that he expected Mr. Tanden to play a role in the administration and would use it for posts that do not require parliamentary approval, but opposition from within the ruling party. The stumbling block in ministerial-level personnel is likely to hurt the administration.
