As I recall, several on here figured she was headed for Washington. Question is, will this help or hurt her to be associated with the Biden Admin. Of course I've read post by Diehard Democrats saying that Biden's done a great job so far....

Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms is joining the Biden administration in a senior White House role.
Bottoms, who served as mayor from 2018 to 2021, will be a senior advisor to the president focused on public engagement, the White House announced Wednesday. She will also oversee the White House Office of Public Engagement. Sharing the news on Instagram Tuesday evening, Bottoms added: #Honored.
In a statement, President Joe Biden said Bottoms “understands that democracy is about making government work for working families, for the people who are the backbone of this country.”
“She led the city of Atlanta with strength through the pandemic, through a summer of protests and pain, and through the mass shooting that left Atlanta’s Asian American community in fear,” Biden said.
Bottoms replaces Cedric Richmond, a former congressman who was Biden’s first Office of Public Engagement director as well as a close advisor. He left his post earlier this year.
