The Conservative Action Project, a coalition of conservative groups and leaders, released a memorandum entitled: “Neera Tanden is Unfit to Lead the Office of Management and Budget.”
The coalition hopes to disseminate the memo across social media and other platforms to put pressure on Senators to oppose President Joe Biden nominating Tanden, who has a far-left policy record, including during her tenure as president of the left-wing Center for American Progress.
The memo stated:
Conservatives strongly oppose the confirmation of Neera Tanden to lead the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
It is critical that the OMB director lead the agency with sound judgment, as well as bipartisan civility. Tanden has shown neither.
