WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND), a Senate Budget Committee member, issued the following statement on the withdrawal of Neera Tanden’s nomination to be Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) today:
“Neera Tanden’s nomination failed just as it should have. She has a history of being a poor manager and of supporting toxic far-left policies which would be detrimental to the nation if implemented. She was the wrong choice for this position, and I hope the next nominee President Biden puts forward will be a more qualified candidate with widespread support, rather than a polarizing one meant to appease his liberal base.”
