Young give birth to her first child, her daughter Charlie, in October 2021. Young had always planned to be a mother. That she was newly pregnant when Biden tapped her for the administration did nothing to dampen the enthusiasm for the moment.

For an official who had a reputation of always being available, and always ready to hop on the phone at any moment, a newborn would seem to create some clear challenges.

Still, Young spent her first year of motherhood shaping Biden’s budget and appropriations policy, quarterbacking the administration’s disaster relief efforts, guiding the process to direct billions to assist Ukraine in its war with Russia, and helping to clinch, and then implement, the bipartisan infrastructure law.
