Karine Jean-Pierre has joined Joe Biden’s presidential campaign as senior adviser after serving as chief public affairs officer for MoveOn.org and as an NBC and MSNBC political analyst.
The networks said that Jean-Pierre no longer is a contributor following her new campaign post, where she will focus on engagement with communities including with African American and women voters.
“I am thrilled to announce that I will be joining the Biden campaign as a senior adviser,” she wrote on Twitter. “This is the most important general election in generations and I just could not sit this election out.”
MoveOn said that she will be taking a leave of absence to join the Biden campaign’s senior leadership. “A great sign about the direction of the campaign,” the organization said on Twitter. Jean-Pierre is the author of Moving Forward: A Story of Hope, Hard Work, and the Promise of America.
