Look, it’s each one of these groups’ job to push, push their leaders to make sure there’s greater diversity. What I can promise you is when this is all said and done, you’ll see everyone that I’ve announced and there’s going to be in the next several weeks, he said.
We’ll have it all out there. You’re going to see significant diversity. I’m not going to tell you now exactly what I’m going to do in any department, but I promise you it will be the single most diverse cabinet based on race, colour, based on gender that ever existed in the United States of America, Biden said.
