From the release:

"Centilli will be tasked with advancing strategy and communicating Brady’s key economic initiatives which include Federal Reserve and regulatory reforms, and the MAP Act to shrink the size of the federal government.

“America’s economy continues to disappoint, and we need a bolder agenda to get people back to work,” said Brady. “Doug has been invaluable in helping develop these key economic initiatives and I’m excited he’s willing to devote full time to moving them forward.”
