ABC News reported Jean-Pierre would begin the role "effective immediately" while still maintaining her job as press secretary. This would be the first time in decades a press secretary has also served as a senior adviser. Fox News' Brandon Gillespie contributed to this report.
A White House official also told ABC News how "her promotion shows the faith that Biden has in her, as well as his commitment to having diverse and inter-generational voices guiding him in his decisions."
