White House regulatory czar Neomi Rao will be nominated to fill the vacancy left by Justice Brett Kavanaugh on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, President Donald Trump said Tuesday.

Rao, confirmed in 2017 to lead the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, has spearheaded the Trump administration’s deregulatory agenda, including the effort to cut two regulations for every new one introduced. A lawsuit challenging the administration’s two-for-one order was dismissed earlier this year.
