GovExec Daily: How Human Capital Officials See White House Budgets

President Joe Biden's budget blueprint released late last month calls for hiring across much of the federal government, somewhat spurred from expiration of the 2011 Budget Control Act’s 10-year caps. If Biden’s budget is a priority document, a major priority for this administration is more civil servants into government.

Dr. Reginald Wells was Deputy Commissioner of the Social Security Administration’s Office of Human Resources for 15 years and is now an Executive in Residence at American University’s Department of Public Administration and Policy. He joined the show to discuss how presidential budgets affect government human resources officials and their approaches to hiring.
