The chief legal counsel of the White House is set to depart in the coming month after a tenure of almost three years. During that time, Stuart Delery provided legal guidance to President Joe Biden in navigating the legal aspects of his pandemic response, addressing Republican inquiries, and formulating significant legislative initiatives.
Following President Biden’s victory over the incumbent President Donald Trump in November 2020, Mr. Delery became a member of the Biden transition legal team. Before assuming his position as legal counsel, Mr. Delery held the role of deputy counsel. He was subsequently promoted to the highest position in the summer following the departure of Dana Remus, who served as President Biden’s initial counsel in the White House.
