Phenomenal team. They are all talented, smart, and hard-working. I had the privilege to work with them at HHS in the Obama years. So glad they are returning to serve at this critical time.

Congrats and good luck! Lot of work to do...

⁦Heather Long⁩ notes that many jobs won’t come back and American Rescue Plan has no money for retraining. Maybe the Senate can find a way to add some of the $50b Pres Biden called for in new workforce development investments during the campaign? washingtonpost.com/road-to-recove…

Couldn’t agree more with this op-ed by ⁦Harin Contractor⁩ and others. Improving how benefits are delivered is critical. IRS has been underfunded for decades and will likely be responsible for monthly child allowances. The “how” needs attention ASAP vox.com/22287335/covid…

My vote: IRS. It administers the child credit now and since the child allowance is a one-year provision with a somewhat uncertain future, a successful roll-out is essential. Think IRS has better chance of accomplishing that goal.
