White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that President Joe Biden frequently seeks counsel from former President Barack Obama on a wide-range of issues.
While responding to a reporter, Psaki said that the two "keep in regular touch" although she didn’t confirm how often.
"They consult and talk about a range of issues and I would expect that continues through the course of President Biden’s presidency," Psaki said.
"That can be done over the phone it turns out, and I think if President Obama had been here, you would all know," she said.
According to Psaki, a topic of discussion between President Biden and former President Obama pertains to the 'Affordable Care Act,' which was enacted under the Obama administration.
President Biden just recently signed two executive order to expand access to Obamacare, which was previously overturned by the Trump administration.
Biden has had a number of individuals who previously served in the Obama administration join his team, including chief of staff Ron Klain, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Fox News reported.
