For Immediate Release April 01, 2013 President Obama To Nominate Brian Deese to Deputy Director of the Office of Management and Budget

WASHINGTON, DC – Today, President Barack Obama announced his intent to nominate the following individual to a key Administration post:

Brian Deese – Deputy Director, Office of Management and Budget

President Obama said, “From helping to navigate our rescue of a financial system on the brink of collapse to retooling a flatlining auto industry to crafting a policy to put our nation on a fiscally sustainable path, Brian Deese has proven an indispensable member of my economic team. He has a deep and intuitive understanding of economic and budgetary policy, and I am confident he will serve America well in this new role.  As we continue to pursue a balanced approach that significantly reduces the deficit while investing in economic growth, job creation and the middle class, there's no one better suited to take on this important role than Brian.”

"Brian has impressed me and our entire team with his strong leadership and sound judgment, but most importantly, he never loses sight of who we are fighting for. I am grateful for his outstanding service on behalf of America’s families, and I look forward to working with him in the years to come.”
