Tracking Trump’s Cabinet and Staff Nominations

President-elect Donald J. Trump has quickly chosen many of the figures he wants to serve in his cabinet and in other senior positions during his second term.

The cabinet always comprises at least 16 positions — the vice president and the heads of the 15 executive departments — and presidents have discretion to elevate other officials, like the White House chief of staff, to the cabinet level. This page will be updated as new announcements are made.
