The Appointment of Ron Klain as White House Chief of Staff
Ron Klain has been asked by President-elect Biden to return to public service in a critically important role at a critically important time in our nation’s history. Ron has been one of Joe Biden’s most trusted advisors for more than three decades, and brings enormous experience and wisdom to the role.
Ron has been instrumental in building Revolution into a major venture capital investment firm. He has served as General Counsel and Executive Vice President since the firm launched in 2005, with notable departures to serve our country as Vice President Biden’s Chief of Staff in 2008 and President Obama’s Ebola Czar in 2014.
We applaud Ron’s decision to return again to public service, and wish him all the best as he takes on this task. We are sorry to lose him, but we’re more optimistic about getting through the pandemic and building back better knowing Ron will bring his many talents to bear to support the President and serve the nation.
I also congratulate the President-elect on his victory. I’ve known Joe Biden for three decades. He is a good man, and a great American. He has the experience & character to bring us together. He can bring hope & opportunity to the people & places that have been left behind.
