Data reviewed by The Washington Post shows that Trump has selected fewer women to serve in these senior roles than during the same period<b> <\/b>of his first term. There also has been a historic amount of turnover among women in Trump\u2019s Cabinet.<\/p>\n<p>The Trump White House <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/susie-wiles-trump-white-house-chief-of-staff-first-woman\/\" rel=\"\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/susie-wiles-trump-white-house-chief-of-staff-first-woman\/\">has expressed pride<\/a> in the fact that some key senior staff have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/releases\/2026\/01\/sara-carter-confirmed-as-drug-czar\/\" rel=\"\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/releases\/2026\/01\/sara-carter-confirmed-as-drug-czar\/\">been the first women<\/a> to hold certain titles, including Susie Wiles as chief of staff, and defended the president\u2019s hiring choices in a statement to The Post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Trump has assembled the greatest Administration in history, selecting each member of his incredible team based on one criterion: their ability to deliver for the American people,\u201d Taylor Rogers, a White House spokeswoman, said in a statement. \u201cUnlike the identity-politics-obsessed Democrats, the President judges individuals on merit and qualifications, not immutable characteristics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the Partnership for Public Service, a nonprofit that says it aims to build a better government and a stronger democracy, Trump\u2019s Senate-confirmed appointees are made up of the smallest percentage of women of any administration since George W. Bush.<\/p>\n<p>A PPS political appointee tracker, launched with The Post<b> <\/b>in 2016, monitors appointments to roughly 800 executive branch positions, a portion of more than 1,300 positions that require Senate confirmation. It includes all full-time, civilian positions in the executive branch that require Senate confirmation except for judges, marshals and U.S. attorneys. (Military appointments and part-time positions requiring Senate confirmation are not included.)<\/p>\n<p>When excluding ambassadors and holdovers from previous administrations, PPS data show that so far in this administration, about a year and four months in, 14.53 percent of all nominees or Senate-confirmed political appointees \u2014 51 out of 351 total roles \u2014 are women.<\/p>\n<p>At this point in President Joe Biden\u2019s term, women had been nominated for 199 out of 379 roles, comprising 52.5 percent of appointees. And at this point in Trump\u2019s first term, women had been nominated or announced for 41 of 173 of those roles, comprising 23.7 percent of appointees.<\/p>\n<p>Heather Higgins, CEO of the conservative nonprofit Independent Women\u2019s Voice, told The Post that \u201cthe confirmation gantlet falls hardest on conservative women who can expect their families, faith, and reputations to be put through the wood chipper.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlenty of enormously talented women make the entirely rational choice to serve the country some other way,\u201d she added. \u201cThat\u2019s not a deficit of ambition but a market signal that women don\u2019t necessarily see politics as the only or best lane for influence. And looking at the life of those in those roles, which is no picnic, I\u2019d say that that\u2019s a testament to the groundedness and judgment of women on the right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But Max Stier, the president and CEO of the Partnership for Public Service, expressed concerns about the trend.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/?p=3292\">Brewers outlast A\u2019s 15-14 in 12 innings as teams combine for 11 homers and 34 hits in Las Vegas<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe evidence is clear that drawing on people with different backgrounds creates a higher-performing organization,\u201d Stier said in a statement. \u201cAt the end of the day, our government needs leadership that reflects the diversity of the American people in order to understand and best serve them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The first female Cabinet member was Frances Perkins, who served as secretary of labor from 1933 through 1945. But it wasn\u2019t until the 1970s under President Jimmy Carter that more than one woman was part of the president\u2019s Cabinet at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>Trump selected nine women to serve in his Cabinet or in Cabinet-level positions at the start of his second term. One of those Cabinet-rank members, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, does not require Senate confirmation. Another pick, Elise Stefanik, withdrew her nomination as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.<\/p>\n<p>Among Trump\u2019s presidential predecessors, only Biden successfully nominated more women to serve in his Cabinet toward the start of his presidency.<\/p>\n<p>But nearly a year and a half into Trump\u2019s second term, every departure from his Cabinet has been a woman. And more female Cabinet and Cabinet-level officials have left their positions during this term than at this point in any previous presidential administration, according to an internal count by The Post based on a <a href=\"https:\/\/cawp.rutgers.edu\/data\/levels-office\/federal-executive?tab=High-LevelPresidentialAppointments#AllAdministrations\" rel=\"\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https:\/\/cawp.rutgers.edu\/data\/levels-office\/federal-executive?tab=High-LevelPresidentialAppointments#AllAdministrations\">list <\/a>of female Cabinet members through U.S. history collected by the Rutgers University Center for American Women and Politics.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/national-security\/2026\/05\/22\/tulsi-gabbard-resigns-director-national-intelligence\/\" rel=\"\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/national-security\/2026\/05\/22\/tulsi-gabbard-resigns-director-national-intelligence\/\">Tulsi Gabbard<\/a> announced last month that she would step down as the Director of National Intelligence effective June 30.

That number dropped to 166 in 2024. So far in 2026, the number of female Republican candidates filing to run for House seats has <a href=\"https:\/\/cawp.rutgers.edu\/data\/candidates-women-candidates-2026#U.S.House\" rel=\"\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https:\/\/cawp.rutgers.edu\/data\/candidates-women-candidates-2026#U.S.House\">declined <\/a>further to 155 candidates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRepublican women are underrepresented across the board, across states, even when we look at them as a percentage of their own caucus in highly Republican states,\u201d said Kelly Dittmar, Director of Research and CAWP Scholar at Rutgers. \u201cThis change in a Republican administration is consistent with what we have seen before: When Republicans are in office, when they hold a state legislature, the majority party \u2014 we know that almost always there are going to be fewer women.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Public polling suggests that waning female representation in Washington may not be seen as much of a problem for many Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>A 2023 Pew Research study <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/social-trends\/2023\/09\/27\/women-and-political-leadership-ahead-of-the-2024-election\/\" rel=\"\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/social-trends\/2023\/09\/27\/women-and-political-leadership-ahead-of-the-2024-election\/\">found <\/a>that 5 percent of Republicans and Republican leaners say it is extremely or very important to them that the U.S. elects a woman as president in their lifetime. Among Democrats, 31 percent said it was extremely or very important. Republican women were also about twice as likely as Republican men to say there are too few women in high political offices in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s odd to assume that women are succeeding only if they\u2019re found in government rosters. That\u2019s a surprisingly narrow definition of success,\u201d Higgins said. \u201cOne of the lessons of the last several decades is that women don\u2019t all want the same things, don\u2019t make the same choices, and shouldn\u2019t be expected to. Equality means respecting those choices, not treating every statistical difference as evidence that something has gone wrong.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/?p=3289\">Trump is greeted by boos at Madison Square Garden during the NBA Finals<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Post review shows the president built a more male-dominated Cabinet this term, and every departure has been a woman \u2014 with a man chosen to replace each of them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3294,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3296","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interesting"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
