Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is:
Polls show that the country overwhelmingly agrees that we need a high-speed rail system to connect the east and west coasts and everything in between. The president schedules a Cabinet meeting to discuss whether or not the project can be included in the federal budget. Given this information, which non-permanent Cabinet member would most likely be asked to attend the meeting?
a. secretary of transportation b. secretary of the interior c. chairperson of the Council of Economic Advisors d. director of the Office of Budget and Management
Answer:
d. director of the Office of Budget and Management
Explanation:
Even without being part of the Ganinete responsible for the railway system, it is important that the Director of the Budget and Management Office is invited to participate in the meeting, because he/she will be essential to assess the availability of economic resources for this project, as soon as they evaluate all the expenditure and gain that the government would have, being able to conclude if the project is economically viable or what modifications must be made so that the project becomes more economical and within the limits of government expenditure.
