THE PRESIDENT'S CABINET
|
The tradition of the Cabinet dates
back to the beginnings of the Presidency itself. One of
the principal purposes of the Cabinet (drawn from
Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution) is to advise
the President on any subject he may require relating to
the duties of their respective offices.
The Cabinet includes the
Vice President and the heads of 15 executive
departments-the Secretaries of Agriculture, Commerce,
Defense, Education, Energy, Health and Human Services,
Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development,
Interior, Labor, State, Transportation, Treasury, and
Veterans Affairs, and the Attorney General. Under
President George W. Bush, Cabinet-level rank also has
been accorded to the Administrator, Environmental
Protection Agency; Director, Office of Management and
Budget; the Director, National Drug Control Policy; and
the U.S. Trade Representative.
