President Joe Biden, while seeming to acknowledge it would take some effort, said Tuesday that he still sees a path forward for Neera Tanden to head up the Office of Management and Budget despite bipartisan pushback that has thrown her hopes for confirmation into question.
“We’re going to push. I still think there’s a shot — a good shot,” Biden told reporters Tuesday afternoon, echoing press secretary Jen Psaki, who said that it was the White House’s expectation that Tanden would be confirmed.
