Updated November 23, 2020 Updated November 23, 2020 1 Executive office of the President (EOP) The Executive Office of the President (EOP) comprises the offices and agencies that support the work of the president at the center of the executive branch of the United States federal government. To provide the President with the support that he or she needs to govern effectively, the Executive Office of the President (EOP) was created in 1939 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The EOP has responsibility for tasks ranging from communicating the President’s message to the American people to promoting our trade interests abroad. The EOP is also referred to as a 'permanent government', with many policy programs, and the people who implement them, continuing between presidential administrations. This is because there is a need for qualified, knowledgeable civil servants in each office or agency to inform new politicians. With the increase in technological and global advancement, the size of the White House staff has increased to include an array of policy experts to effectively address various fields. There are about 4,000 positions in the EOP, most of which do not require confirmation from the U.S. Senate. Senior staff within the Executive Office of the President have the title Assistant to the President, second-level staff have the title Deputy Assistant to the President, and third-level staff have the title Special Assistant to the President. The core White House staff appointments, and most Executive Office officials generally, are not required to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate, although there are a handful of exceptions (e.g., the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, the Chair and members of the Council of Economic Advisers, and the United States Trade Representative). link The following entities exist within the Executive Office of the President: • Council of Economic Advisers • Council on Environmental Quality • Executive Residence • National Security Council • Office of Administration • Office of Management and Budget • Office of National Drug Control Policy • Office of Science and Technology Policy • Office of the United States Trade Representative • Office of the Vice President • White House Office 2 White House Office In addition, the following entities exist within the White House Office, staff working directly for and reporting to the President including West Wing Staff and the president’s closest advisers • Domestic Policy Council o Office of National AIDS Policy o Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships o Office of Social Innovation and Civic Participation o White House Rural Council • National Security Advisor • National Economic Council • Office of Cabinet Affairs • Office of the Chief of Staff o Chief of Staff: Ron Klain o Deputy Chief of Staff: Jen O’Malley Dillon • Office of Communications o Office of the Press Secretary o Media Affairs o Research o Speechwriting • Office of Digital Strategy • Office of the First Lady o Chief of Staff to Dr. Jill Biden: Julissa Reynoso Pantaleong o Senior Advisor to Dr. Jill Biden: Anthony Bernal o Policy Director to Dr. Jill Biden: Mala Adiga o Office of the Social Secretary ▪ White House Social Secretary: Carlos Elizondo • Office of Legislative Affairs o Director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs: Louisa Terrell o Deputy Director of White House Office of Legislative Affairs: Reema Dodin o Deputy Director of White House Office of Legislative Affairs: Shuwanza Goff • Office of Management and Administration o White House Personnel o White House Operations o Telephone Office o Visitors Office 3 • Oval Office Operations o Director of Oval Office Operations: Annie Tomasini • Office of Presidential Personnel o Director of White House Office of Presidential Personnel: Cathy Russell • Office of Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs o Office of Public Engagement ▪ Senior Advisor to the President and Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement: Congressman Cedric Richmond ▪ Council on Women and Girls o Office of Intergovernmental Affairs ▪ Director of White House Office of Intergovernmental Affairs: Julie Chavez Rodriguez o Office of Urban Affairs • Office of Scheduling and Advance • Office of the Staff Secretary o Presidential Correspondence o Executive Clerk o Records Management • Office of the White House Counsel o White House Counsel: Dana Remus • 4 Biden – Harris Transition Confirmed White House Staff White House Chief of Staff: Ron Klain graduated summa cum laude Harvard Law School, Editor of the Harvard Law Review Ron Klain served as the president-elect’s first Chief of Staff when he became Vice President (2009-11); Chief Counsel of the Senate Judiciary Committee during the president-elect’s tenure as Chair of the Committee (1989-92); and Policy Advisor on the Judiciary Committee staff (1986-87).

  • 2020 Election Analysis
    2020 ELECTION ANALYSIS NOVEMBER HOUSEHOLD & COMMERCIAL 2020 PRODUCTS ASSOCIATION 2018 | MARCH MEMPHIS SOLUTIONS PRESIDENTIAL RESULTS After several days of counting votes in key battleground states, most major news outlets called the presidential race for President-elect Joseph R. Biden on Saturday, November 7. Since then, all outstanding states have been called, giving the President-elect a 306-232 Electoral College victory over President Donald J. Trump. Biden was able to hold all of the states that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton won in 2016. In addition, Biden was able to flip three midwestern “blue wall” states that Trump had won in 2016: Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. On top of that, Biden also flipped Arizona and Georgia, giving him the same number of electoral votes that Trump won in the 2016 election. Although a small number of votes are still being counted, it is predicted that Biden has earned more than 78 million votes nationwide for 50.9 percent of the popular vote, compared with Trump’s 73 million votes (47.3 percent). Although President Trump has refused to concede the election, has made unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud, and has pressed dozens of longshot lawsuits to challenge election results, President-elect Biden has started transition procedures to review federal agencies and prepare for a new administration. 2020 ELECTION ANALYSIS PAGE 2 2018 | MARCH MEMPHIS SOLUTIONS KEY TAKEAWAYS President Trump outperformed Youth voters turn out in key battleground projections.

She graduated from University of Kent, and University College, London in 1977 and 1980 respectively. Her working experiences encompass the fields of culture, youth and sports and community development. She is also a former Commissioner for ASEAN Commission on the Promotion and Protection of the Rights of Women and Children. She is a leading proponent on the rights of women and children and other vulnerable groups and delivered various papers in areas covering Community Development and Women issues. It is an undeniable fact that in order to achieve real and lasting progress, women must be placed at the forefront of the socio-economic agenda. Empowering women is key towards a more sustainable and better quality of life for all. Our presence here today and our achievement to date is living testament of that fact. It is therefore a privilege and an honour for me to be among the contributors of such progress at the World Assembly for Women in Tokyo 2014. This Assembly allows us to reaffirm our commitment to the continued participation of women and press towards a more equitable society for us all. I wish to congratulate Japan for organizing such a prestigious event and pray that the successful convening of WAW! Tokyo 2014 would spur women’s power from strength to strength for the benefit of all – men, women and children and towards enhancing greater peace and understanding in the world.

    SUNDAY, APRIL 12, 2020 THE SUNDAY EXTRA Latinas want one of their own as Biden’s VP DAVID CATANESE Tribune News Service WASHINGTON — As Joe Biden begins to formalize a list of poten- tial running mates, it’s clear that several African American women will sit prominently at the top. Kamala Harris and Stacey Abrams already boast considerable national profiles, and Val Demings, a police chief-turned-congress- woman from Central Florida, earned unexpected notoriety as an impeachment manager in the Sen- ate trial of President Donald Trump. But even as Hispanics are ex- pected to make up the largest nonwhite voting bloc in the 2020 election, leaders of the commu- nity concede that Latina women enter the veepstakes process as less likely prospects, rather than top-tier hopefuls — the result of a still-maturing power base that’s MATT ROURKE, ASSOCIATED PRESS yet to be fully realized.
