TWI Contributor Sunstein to Join Obama Team
President-elect Barack Obama is expected to tap Cass Sunstein, a Harvard constitutional scholar and contributor to The Washington Independent, to lead the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, according to the Chicago Tribune.
From the Trib:
“„A low-profile position in the current administration, the job is likely to be a higher-wattage one after Obama takes office this month.
“„Obama has promised an overhaul to federal regulation, specifically of the U.S. financial markets, and Sunstein’s job description suggests a sweeping agenda.
Sunstein has also been mentioned as a potential Supreme Court pick under Obama, although a position in the administration might reduce the likelihood that he’ll move to the bench.
