Gautam Raghavan, a homosexual Indian-American who served as a White Home LGBTQ+ liaison in President Barack Obama’s administration, has been appointed deputy director of the Workplace of Presidential Personnel by President-elect Joe Biden.
That place is “key to figuring out, recruiting and vetting the greater than 4,000 political appointments throughout the federal authorities,” in keeping with a press launch from the LGBTQ Victory Institute, which offers coaching and management growth to LGBTQ+ individuals in politics.
Raghavan is a member of Biden’s transition workforce and has labored carefully with Victory Institute’s Presidential Appointments Initiative on its efforts to make sure that certified out LGBTQ+ persons are appointed all through the brand new administration, Victory Institute notes.
