                              Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms


Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms turned down an opportunity to serve in President-elect Joe Biden’s Cabinet, a spokesperson for Bottoms said in a statement that she respectfully declined Biden’s offer.

The statement did not say what Cabinet position she had been offered, but denied speculation that Bottoms had turned down a step to be an ambassador.

“She was never offered an ambassadorship,” the statement said.“Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms was honored to have been offered a role in the Cabinet, which she respectfully declined,” 

“The Mayor’s focus remains on the people of Atlanta and the great state of Georgia,” the statement said. “Out of respect for the process, and the other candidates under consideration, no additional comment will be forthcoming on this matter at this time.”  
Bottoms was elected mayor in 2017 and she was a former member of the Atlanta City Council, representing part of Southwest Atlanta
