Susan Rice, President Biden’s top domestic policy adviser, is departing the administration, the White House said Monday.
Ms. Rice, a longtime foreign-policy expert, has led the White House Domestic Policy Council since the start of the administration, helping coordinate with federal agencies on a broad variety of issues, including economic mobility, healthcare, gun control and immigration. Her last day will be May 26, an administration official said.
In a statement, President Biden thanked Ms. Rice for her service, saying, “there is no one more capable, and more determined to get important things done for the American people than Susan Rice.”
He praised Ms. Rice for her work on health policy, including on lowering prescription drug prices for seniors.
