Jean-Pierre will now be alongside the ranks of the president’s top confidantes like senior advisers Mike Donilon, Steve Richetti and Bruce Reed. A White House official said that her promotion shows the ****** that Biden has in her, as well as his commitment to having diverse and inter-generational voices guiding him in his decisions.

Jean-Pierre will begin her new role effective immediately. She will also maintain her press secretary duties through the end of Biden’s administration, the first press secretary in decades to also hold the title of senior adviser.

The move also shows the increased influence of the communications and press operations in the Biden White House. When former senior adviser Anita Dunn left her role, Communications Director Ben LaBolt was promoted to senior adviser.
