cabinet secretaries

Presidential advisory officials

Cabinet secretaries are the heads of executive departments in a presidential government, particularly the United States.

They serve as the president's chief advisors and administrators, each overseeing a major area of federal policy: the Secretary of State handles foreign affairs, the Secretary of Defense manages military matters, the Treasury Secretary oversees fiscal policy, and so on.

The president met with cabinet secretaries to discuss the budget.
