The President’s Cabinet serves primarily to advise the President on important issues related to the duties of each member's respective executive department. The Cabinet is composed of the Vice President and the heads of 15 executive departments, such as Defense, State, Treasury, Justice, and others. These members are appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate before taking office

. Cabinet members meet regularly with the President to provide expertise and guidance on a wide range of topics, including national security, economic policies, healthcare, and more. This advice helps the President make informed decisions on critical matters facing the country

. In addition to advising the President, Cabinet members manage their respective departments. They oversee day-to-day operations, implement policies, and ensure their departments run efficiently. Each Cabinet secretary has full administrative control over their department and is responsible for carrying out the President’s agenda within their area

. Thus, the Cabinet plays a vital dual role: advising the President on policy and operational issues, and administering the federal executive departments that carry out government functions
