Brian Deese, the White House’s top economic adviser who helped craft major stimulus packages and manage the economic fallout from the Covid-19 pandemic, will step down, Joe Biden announced Thursday, AFP reported.

“Brian has a unique ability to turn complex policy challenges into concrete actions that improve the lives of Americans,” Biden said in a statement.

He credited his economic adviser for “transitioning our historic economic recovery to strong and sustainable growth.”

Among Brian Dease’s major economic reforms were a giant infrastructure program called the Bipartisan Infrastructure Act, the Lower Inflation Act, a pharaonic plan to invest in clean energy, and the CHIPS and Science Act, a law that levied nearly 53 billions of US dollars. for manufacturing and research in the electronic microcircuits sector.

The departure of Brian Dees, 44, was expected midway through President Biden’s term, and Republicans and Democrats now share control of Congress. His replacement has not yet been appointed.
