Updated: November 17, 2025
Source: Data from Congress.gov, web searches, news stories, and interviews with former staff members.
Note: Total counts shown for each administration exclude those with race/ethnicities categorized as "Unknown," and thus percentages may not add to 100%. The data include confirmed nominees from the 15 major departments in the line of presidential succession. In cases where individuals have more than one race/ethnicity, we count both, such that the total number shown above may exceed the number of nominees. This data abides by the categorization of the 2020 census. The first 100 days span from January 20 to April 29, 2025; the second 100 days end on August 7, 2025; and the third 100 days end on November 15, 2025.
