The decision was made as she wished to spend more time with her young children and family. Leavitt, who joined the Trump administration in January 2025, became the youngest White House press secretary in history. She was known for her role as a prominent public messenger on various issues important to Indians, such as tariffs, Russian oil, immigration, and the India-Pakistan conflict. Her resignation marks the end of a career that provided her extraordinary opportunities within the West Wing and allowed her to interact with the President on numerous occasions.",
