Ron Klein, the first White House chief of staff in the US administration of Joe Biden, is expected to resign soon.
US media such as CNN reported on the 21st local time that Klein is expected to resign after President Biden's State of the Union speech on the 7th of next month.
CNN reported that Klein's chief of staff has expressed his intention to step down at some point since the November 8 midterm elections.
In fact, Chief Secretary Klein is the first to resign as a heavyweight in that none of the ministers appointed by the Biden government have been replaced so far.
Chief of Staff Klein is an Indiana-born lawyer who graduated from Harvard Law School.
He even served as chief of staff when President Biden was vice president.
In 2014, during the Barack Obama administration, he was appointed as the "Ebola Tsar" who oversaw virus affairs under the direct control of the White House and led the response to the Ebola outbreak.
