LOS ANGELES—President Joe Biden officially re-nominated former Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti to be ambassador to India Jan. 3, giving new life to a nomination that stalled over accusations that Garcetti ignored sexual assault and harassment allegations against a former top aide.
The Wall Street Journal first reported Biden’s plan to renew several stalled nominations, including Garcetti’s and that of former Metro CEO Phil Washington to become the new head of the Federal Aviation Administration.
