Senate Committee Considers National-Service Agency Nominee
A Senate committee will vote on Thursday whether to approve the nomination of Patrick Corvington, a senior associate at the Annie E. Casey Foundation, as chief executive of the Corporation for National and Community Service.
President Obama nominated Mr. Corvington, an expert in nonprofit leadership, to the post in October. He would succeed David Eisner, who left the agency almost a year ago and is now chief executive of the National Constitution Center, in Philadelphia.
The Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee will consider Mr. Corvington along with several other administration nominees. If the committee gives the green light, the nomination will go to the full Senate.
Note: The committee was originally scheduled to consider Mr. Corvington’s nomination on Wednesday but has rescheduled the vote.
