k******0 发帖数: 2438 | 1 President-elect Donald Trump has named Rep. Mick Mulvaney (R-S.C.) as his
director of the Office of Management and Budget, signaling his intent to
slash spending and address the deficit as president.
Mulvaney, 49, was elected to Congress in 2010 in the wave that brought a
cohort of younger, staunchly conservative members into the House. Mulvaney
quickly staked out ground as one of Congress’s most outspoken fiscal hawks
— playing a key role in the 2011 showdown between President Obama and House
Republicans that ended in the passage of strict budget caps.
He has been an advocate for spending cuts, often taking on his own party to
push for more aggressive curbs to government spending.
“We are going to do great things for the American people with Mick Mulvaney
leading the Office of Management and Budget,” Trump said in a statement.
“Right now we are nearly $20 trillion in debt, but Mick is a very high-
energy leader with deep convictions for how to responsibly manage our nation
’s finances and save our country from drowning in red ink.
