West Wing
Presidential workspace section
The West Wing is the section of the White House containing the Oval Office and executive staff offices—the operational center of the American presidency.
By extension, it refers to the president's closest advisors and staff: The West Wing is pushing back on the proposal.
The term gained wider currency through the acclaimed television drama of the same name (1999–2006).
