President Trump tech adviser Reed Cordish is leaving the White House

A senior Trump administration adviser on government-to-government and technology initiatives is stepping down, the latest of more than a dozen top officials to depart the White House in little more than a year.  Reed S. Cordish is leaving his post as assistant to the president in the Office of American Innovation, where he is being replaced by Brooke L. Rollins. 

Rollins is a former aide to Energy Secretary Rick Perry, from his time as Texas governor. She joins the White House from the Texas Public Policy Foundation, a conservative think tank that advocates for criminal justice reform and free enterprise. Cordish, 43, a close friend of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, played a central role in shaping the administration’s infrastructure plan with the aim of passing it this spring.
