Political Appointee Tracker

Developed by the nonpartisan nonprofit Partnership for Public Service and The Washington Post, this free tool tracks the progress of federal appointees for the current administration. A timeline of the latest hearings, referrals, and more is updated daily. For Cabinet secretary positions, a graphic shows who was nominated and follows the timeline from the announcement to Senate confirmation. The tool tracks appointments for more than 800 positions in total, even the ones that do not make headlines, including ambassadors, general counsels, chief financial officers, and other key leaders. A searchable database of every position, including holdovers from the previous administration, can be filtered by agency, confirmation status, rank, and gender of the nominee. The information is sourced mainly from Congress.gov, the official website of the U.S. Congress, as well as other publicly available government websites and news sources.
