Tom Cotton (R-AR) outright dismissed the possibility of Neera Tanden, Joe Biden's nominee to head the Office of Management and Budget, being confirmed to the post. "Neera Tanden has no chance of being confirmed". It's just another example of how the - Joe Biden is going back to the Obama-Biden era when we're going to have more taxes and more regulations and not have a government that works with and stands beside the American people.

Other nominees and appointees include Cecilia Rouse, who was selected to be chair of the Council of Economic Advisers.

The resurfacing of the Tanden tweet also comes as Biden - who would be Tanden's boss if she is confirmed by the Senate - has been pushing for unity in the wake of his electoral win. She would also be the first person to have served as treasury secretary, chair of the Council of Economic Advisors, and chair of the Federal Reserve. Biden also recently announced an all-female White House senior communications team. Bernstein served as chief economist to then-Vice President Biden in the Obama-Biden Administration before joining the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. He served in many roles during the Obama administration, including the President's senior global economic adviser, deputy national security adviser, deputy director of the National Economic Council, the first chief of staff of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and senior adviser and deputy chief of staff at the Department of the Treasury.
