President Biden‘s senior adviser for migration Tyler Moran is leaving the White House at the end of January, despite having only taken over the role in July.
“Tyler has been an invaluable member of our team since the transition and a tremendous asset in our effort to rebuild a fair and humane immigration system,” Biden’s chief domestic policy adviser Susan Rice told Politico in a statement.
The White House said that Moran never intended to stay on for more than the first year, noting that she had been commuting by plane since taking up her post.
But the White House made similar statements about the previous person to serve in the role, Amy Pope, after Moran replaced Pope in July.
“Amy had always intended to join the Biden Administration for a short time with an expected departure in the mid-summer,” the White House said at the time.
