new administration

Incoming governing team

A new administration is a recently installed government or leadership team, typically following an election or transition of power.

The phrase appears constantly in political coverage as officials take office: The new administration announced sweeping policy changes.

It often implies a break from previous leadership's approach: Under the new administration, priorities have shifted dramatically.
