The President intends to nominate Jason J. Fichtner, of Virginia, to be Deputy Commissioner of Social Security for the remainder of a six-year term expiring 01/19/13. Dr. Fichtner currently serves as Acting Deputy Commissioner of Social Security and as Associate Commissioner for Retirement Policy at the Social Security Administration. Prior to this, he served as Senior Economist on the Joint Economic Committee of the United States Congress. Earlier in his career, he served as Senior Consultant in the Office of Federal Tax Services of Arthur Andersen.
Dr. Fichtner received his bachelor's degree from the University of Michigan, his master's degree from Georgetown University, and his PhD from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.
Fichtner was only recently appointed as Acting Deputy Commissioner of Social Security. Here is some biographical information on him.
This late in President Bush's term there is essentially no chance of Fichtner being confirmed to a position whose term would run well beyond the end of the Bush Administration.
