The White House Staff is headed by the [[White House Chief of Staff|White House chief of staff]], who is also the head of the Executive Office of the President. The staff work for and report directly to the [[President of the United States|president]], including West Wing staff and the president's senior advisers. Almost all of the White House Staff are political appointees of the president, do not require [[United States Senate|Senate]] confirmation and can be dismissed at the discretion of the president. Aside from [[Cabinet of the United States|Cabinet]] secretaries and [[Supreme Court of the United States|Supreme Court]] justices, whose nominations require the approval of the Senate, the president of the United States has the authority to appoint people to high-level positions within the federal government unilaterally. The staff of the various offices are based in the West Wing and East Wing of the White House. Senior staff, with high level, close contact with the President, have the title Assistant to the President. Second-level staff have the title Deputy Assistant to the President, and third-level staff have the title Special Assistant to the President. These aides oversee the political and policy interests of the president. == Mission == The issues that confront the United States at any one time cannot be dealt with by the president alone, and therefore the president draws on the expertise of others in the administration and even within an administration as one chief of staff may differ from a predecessor or successor. While chiefs of staff may differ in the degree of policy advice they provide a president, they are the managers of the White House staff system. At least in theory, they are the coordinators bringing the pieces together; they are the tone-setters and disciplinarians making for good organizational order, and often act as the gatekeeper for the president, overseeing every person, document and communication that goes to the president. == Organization == The White House Office under the administration as of February 2023 is as follows. '''Office of the Chief of Staff''' * White House Chief of Staff ** Deputy Chief of Staff * Principal Deputy Chief of Staff ** Deputy Chief of Staff '''Office of the Press Secretary''' * Press Secretary ** Deputy Press Secretary '''Office of the National Security Advisor''' * National Security Advisor
