All permanent members of the Cabinet of the United States as heads of executive departments require the advice and consent of the United States Senate following appointment by the president before taking office. The vice presidency is exceptional in that the position requires an election to office pursuant to the United States Constitution. The president may also designate heads of other agencies and non-Senate-confirmed members of the Executive Office of the President as Cabinet-level members of the Cabinet. The Cabinet meets with the president in the Cabinet Room, a room adjacent to the Oval Office.
As the Republican Party will control the next Senate, it is expected that all of Trump's designates will be confirmed with little contest.[1] However, some nominees have been met with criticism by a few Senate Republicans.[2]
Trump's cabinet choices were described by news media as valuing personal loyalty over relevant experience,[6][7] and for having a range of conflicting ideologies and "eclectic personalities".[8][9] It was also described as the wealthiest administration in modern history, with over 13 billionaires chosen to take government posts.[10][11]
The following have been named as Cabinet appointees by the president-elect of the United States.
Second cabinet of President Donald Trump
Elected to office – all other cabinet members serve at the pleasure of the president
The vice president is the only cabinet member to be elected to the position who does not require Senate confirmation, and the vice president does not serve at the pleasure of the president. There were dozens of potential running mates for Trump who received media speculation. Trump's eventual pick of Senator JD Vance (R-OH) was officially announced on July 15, 2024, and confirmed by acclamation via parliamentary procedure amongst delegates to the 2024 Republican National Convention on July 15, 2024.
A nomination for Secretary of State is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Foreign Relations Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. SenatorMarco Rubio from Florida was announced as President-elect Trump's nominee for the position on November 13, 2024.[15]
A nomination for Secretary of the Treasury is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Finance Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. Founder of the global macro investment firm Key Square Group Scott Bessent of South Carolina was announced as Trump's nominee for the position on November 22, 2024.[16]
A nomination for Secretary of Defense is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Armed Services Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. MajorPete Hegseth of Tennessee, a Fox News political commentator, was announced as Trump's nominee for the position on November 12, 2024.[17]
A nomination for Attorney General is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Judiciary Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. On November 13, 2024, Congressman Matt Gaetz was selected to be attorney general,[20] though Gaetz withdrew his name on November 21, 2024[21] after many Senate Republicans stated that he did not have enough votes to be confirmed.[22] That evening, President-elect Trump selected former state attorney generalPam Bondi of Florida as his new nominee for the position.[23]
A nomination for Secretary of the Interior is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. Governor Doug Burgum of North Dakota was announced as Trump's nominee for the position on November 15, 2024.[24]
A nomination for Secretary of Agriculture is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. Former acting DPC director Brooke Rollins from Texas was announced as Trump's nominee for the position on November 23, 2024.

Former congressman and former prosecutor Sean Duffy from Wisconsin was announced as Trump's nominee for the position on November 18, 2024.[37]
Elon Musk and other Silicon Valley executives had encouraged Trump to pick Emil Michael for the role.[38]
The nomination of a secretary-designate is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. Liberty Energy chairman/CEO/founder Chris Wright from Colorado was announced as Trump's nominee for the position on November 15, 2024.[41]
A nomination for Secretary of Veterans Affairs is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Veterans' Affairs Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. Air Forcecolonel and former congressmanDoug Collins of Georgia was announced as Trump's nominee for the position on November 14, 2024.[48]
Cabinet-level officials have positions that are considered to be of Cabinet level, but which are not heads of the executive departments. Which exact positions that are considered to be cabinet-level varies with each president.
Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency
The UN ambassador was previously in the Cabinet from 1953 to 1989, 1993 to 2001, and 2009 to 2018. In November 2024, President-elect Trump selected CongresswomanElise Stefanik of New York as UN ambassador.
Foreign Relations Committee is responsible for holding a hearing to advance the nomination for a full Senate vote.
The U.S. trade representative has been a Cabinet-level member since 1974, the beginning of Gerald Ford's presidency. President-elect Trump selected former USTR chief of staff Jamieson Greer of Washington, D.C. to be nominated for the position on November 26, 2024.
The White House chief of staff has traditionally been the highest-ranking staff employee of the White House. The responsibilities of the chief of staff are both managerial and advisory over the president's official business. The chief of staff is appointed by and serves at the pleasure of the president; it does not require Senate confirmation. On November 7, 2024, Trump announced Susie Wiles of Florida as his choice for his chief of staff, having served as his 2024 campaign co-chair. Wiles will be the first woman to hold the position.[67]
Because cabinet members must be confirmed by the Senate, acting officials are typically appointed for the period before the Senate votes, in accordance with the Federal Vacancies Reform Act of 1998. For cabinet positions, only people who already actively hold a position confirmed by the Senate at the end of the previous administration are eligible.[68] Normally, a senior employee of the same executive agency who is equivalent to a GS-15 or above on the federal pay scale would also be eligible, but this is believed to be unconstitutional in the case of secretaries of the federal executive departments, although this has not been tested in court.[69]
