Czwartacki, who has been at the OMB from the earliest days of the administration, was detailed as a Senior Advisor at BCFP by Acting Director Mick Mulvaney upon his appointment to the dual roles last November. With the transition of Czwartacki to BCFP, he joins an already successful team in their mission to prepare for the yet-unnamed permanent Director and create a more effective, efficient and accountable actor within the federal government and on behalf of the American people.
 
“It has been nothing short of the highlight of my career serving the current budget director, his patriotic and tireless staff, and the Trump administration overall,” Czwartacki said. “It has been my pleasure to work alongside an extremely talented communications team both at OMB and in the West Wing. I look forward to continuing my service, alongside Mick Mulvaney and his tremendous staff, for the foreseeable future. We have lots of work ahead of us.”
