OMB POLICY STATEMENTS
Obama to Announce OMB Pick Monday
President Obama will on Monday nominate Sylvia Mathews Burwell to be the next director of the Office of Management and Budget, a senior administration confirmed to POLITICO. The choice of Burwell, president of the Walmart Foundation, has been widely reported since January. She previously spent a decade working for the Gates Foundation and served as deputy director of OMB during the Clinton administration, working with just-confirmed Treasury Secretary Jack Lew. The president will make the announcement in the East Room of the White House at 10:15 a.m.
