Nussle to Join CNBC

February 4, 2010

New York, NY -- Financial cable news network, CNBC has announced that Jim Nussle is joining the network as a contributor. Nussle, a former Iowa Congressman, Director of the White House Office of Management & Budget (OMB) and Chairman of the House Budget Committee, brings CNBC viewers insight into current Washington, D.C. policy, procedures and politics.

Mr. Nussle’s experience includes serving in the cabinet of President George W. Bush as the Director of OMB, the federal agency responsible for the development, enactment and implementation of the president’s fiscal agenda, regulatory priorities. OMB also functions as the “clearing agency” for all Administration policy decisions and official communications on behalf of the president. In addition, Nussle also served as an advisor to the president as a member of the National Economic Council, National Security Council, Homeland Security Council and National Domestic Policy Council.

Nussle has previously appeared on various CNBC shows and occasionally guest co-hosts “Squawk Box,” a "pre-market" morning news and talk program where the biggest names in business and politics discuss the most important stories of the day. The new “contributor” arrangement means that Nussle will make more regular appearances on CNBC.

Nussle is also President and CEO of The Nussle Group, a multi-disciplined public policy and strategic consulting firm that serves a wide range of clients.

Nussle joins other CNBC contributors including former Democratic Party chair, Howard Dean, founder of the conservative organization “Club for Growth,” Stephen Moore, former press secretary to President Clinton, Joe Lockhart and many others with financial, policy and political backgrounds.
