Biden To Announce First Cabinet Appointments Nov. 24

NOVEMBER 22, 2020 

US President-elect Joe Biden will on Tuesday name the first picks to be part of his administration, his chief of staff said on Sunday, declining to say what positions will be announced, according to AFP.

“You are going to see the first of the president-elect’s cabinet picks on Tuesday of this week,” Biden’s chief of staff Ron Klain told ABC. “You’ll have to wait for president-elect to say that himself on Tuesday.”

Close Biden loyalists are expected to be rewarded with top appointments, while former primary rivals Pete Buttigieg and Senator Bernie Sanders continue to express interest in top jobs, both publicly and through the President-elect’s aides involved in the process.

Transition officials initially envisioned Buttigieg as veterans affairs secretary, but he is now under consideration for a foreign policy role.
