Katie Zacharia made her debut as White House press secretary Tuesday morning, delivering her first official briefing and outlining President Donald Trump's accomplishments and upcoming political priorities.
“Good morning. I am so honored to work for the president and the American people,” Zacharia said as she opened the briefing at the White House.
During the approximately 15-minute appearance, Zacharia highlighted what she described as the Trump administration's accomplishments so far and discussed the president's upcoming plans to campaign for Republican candidates ahead of the midterm elections.
The briefing also included questions about Zacharia's personal life and how she plans to balance the demands of her new position with her family responsibilities.
One reporter asked how she intends to manage the role while her husband and four children remain living out of state. The question followed the departure of former White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, whose family circumstances were cited as a factor in her decision to leave the position.
Zacharia addressed the question during the briefing, offering an early look at how she plans to navigate the responsibilities of serving as the administration's chief spokesperson while maintaining her family life.
Her first appearance marks the beginning of a new chapter for the White House communications team as the Trump administration continues its policy agenda and prepares for the upcoming midterm elections.
