Two Senate committees delayed confirmation votes for President Joe Biden’s pick to lead the White House budget office, signaling that party leaders believe there isn’t enough support for the nominee.
The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and the Senate Budget Committee were scheduled to vote on Feb. 24 on Neera Tanden’s nomination to direct the White House Office of Management and Budget. But both committees postponed the hearings that would have included the votes, leaving Tanden’s nomination in limbo.
