NANTUCKET, Mass. (AP) — President Joe Biden is nominating Shalanda Young to head the Office of Management and Budget. He’s also nominating Nani Coloretti to serve as Young’s deputy. Biden made the announcement in a video released Wednesday by the White House. It would be the first time that the agency is led by two women of color. Young is Black and Coloretti is Filipino American. Young has been acting director for much of 2021. Biden’s first nominee for the position, Neera Tanden, faced bipartisan criticism for her attacks on lawmakers and withdrew from consideration.
