Biden Picks 20 Indo-Americans For Key Roles Published by GulteDesk January 17, 2021
While outgoing US President Donald Trump had been keeping Indians at a distance by imposing several restrictions on the H1-B visas and hinting at reserving jobs in the country for Americans only, President-elect Joe Biden has given preference to Indo-Americans and appointed them in many key policy positions in the White House and his team.
As many as 20 Indo-Americans would adorn key posts in the White House under Biden’s administration. More surprising would be the fact that 13 of them are women.
It is significant to note that Biden has prominence to Indo-Americans as they have been playing a key role in the development of the US even when their population is very meagre in the country. Similarly, Biden also provided opportunity to people of various origins, thereby showcasing a lot of diversity in his governing body.
