6/19/07 President Bush said, "The job of OMB Director is one of the most important in our federal government. The Director has a central responsibility for implementing the full range of my administration’s agenda, from defense programs that will keep the American people safe to energy initiatives that will break our dependence on foreign oil, to tax policies that keep our economy growing and creating jobs. In all these areas, the OMB Director works to ensure that the American people get good value for every tax dollar they send to Washington. Jim Nussle is the right man to take on these challenges."
