Foreword
They are the president's surrogates, the executive branch's nemeses, and the Congress's competitors. Responsible for budgets, management, some statistical services, and procurement, they coordinate policy initiatives of the executive departments and agencies, provide liaison on budgetary and appropriation matters with Congress, and oversee the executive branch's regulatory activities. They enforce precedent, meet bottom lines, and find buried bones all over the government. Often regarded as the people who say "NO," they are the feared overseers of presidents, and their executive branch enforcers. They are the 500+ policy analysts, managers, and political appointees who comprise the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
The OMB is the largest single unit in the Executive Office of the President. Created in 1921 by the Budget and Accounting Act, it was moved from the Treasury Department to the Executive Office in 1939 when the latter was created by President Franklin Roosevelt. It has been part of the presidency ever since. A very powerful agency, its influence stems largely from the ongoing support it receives from presidents, from its closed-door mode of operation, and from the critical nature of its central concernspolicy making, implementation, and budgeting.
