‘@APNews reports, in a video announcement to reveal the news that he officially nominated Shalanda Young to lead the Office of Management And Budget (making her the very first Black woman to do so) President Biden spoke about Young’s leadership and qualifications. “She has continued to impress me, and congressional leaders as well,” he said, acknowledging that Young has been in the role of acting director for most of 2021,’ TSR notes.

‘Following Biden’s formal nomination of Shalanda Young, it is now up a Senate confirmation vote to make her nomination official. However, as of now it is unclear when the confirmation vote will be scheduled.’

One other follower posted this message in the comments: ‘Just pick a great person we need to stop this focus on skin colour that’s why we are being used anyway , it’s like dangling carrots , they will use race to entice you but it’s useless if they are not committed to doing good work , having black leaders doesn’t mean you get work done look at Africa and what the leaders are doing , let’s choose great character not based upon race.’
