Marron to the CEA

Donald Marron has been nominated to become a member of the Council of Economic Advisers. In 2004, while I was the CEA chair, I hired Donald to be the CEA's chief economist. It was one of the best decisions I made.

It is great to see him back at the the White House. Congratulations, Donald!

Update: The Real Time Economics blog reports that Dennis Carlton will also be nominated for the CEA--another fine choice.
