Appointed PAS Positions

These datasets include all civilian presidential appointments requiring Senate confirmation as of January 20, 2025. This includes positions in the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches and positions outside the U.S. government in Washington, DC government and international organizations. It excludes military, Public Health Service, Foreign Service, and judge nominations.

To compile an accurate and comprehensive list I compared the list of positions from the Plum Book against three other sources, a Congressional Research Service (CRS) publication that lists all Senate confirmed positions by the Senate committee responsible for confirmation, records of all nominations made during each administration from congress.gov. Codebooks for each administration provide details.
