The Cabinet of the United States, which is the principal advisory body to the president of the United States, has had 38 permanent female members serving as vice president or head of one of the federal executive departments and 31 women as cabinet-level officials, which can differ under each president. Of that number, one woman was elected vice president, three were appointed to the helm of the different departments, and four served both as Cabinet and Cabinet-rank officeholders. No woman held a Cabinet position before the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920, which prohibits states and the federal government from denying any citizen the right to vote because of that citizen's sex.

  • The Cabinet of the United States, which is the principal advisory body to the president of the United States, has had 38 permanent female members serving as vice president or head of one of the federal executive departments and 31 women as cabinet-level officials, which can differ under each president. Of that number, one woman was elected vice president, three were appointed to the helm of the different departments, and four served both as Cabinet and Cabinet-rank officeholders. No woman held a Cabinet position before the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920, which prohibits states and the federal government from denying any citizen the right to vote because of that citizen's sex. Frances Perkins became the first woman to serve in the Cabinet; she was appointed secretary of labor in 1933 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Perkins remained in office briefly after Harry S. Truman assumed presidency upon Roosevelt's death, becoming the first woman to hold the same post under separate administrations. Patricia Roberts Harris was the first woman to have served in two different Cabinet posts during a single administration. She was appointed by President Jimmy Carter as secretary of housing and urban development in 1977 and served as secretary of health and human services two years later. Harris also became the first African American woman and first woman of color to serve in a president’s cabinet. Elizabeth Dole was the first woman to have served in two different Cabinet posts for two different administrations. She was appointed by President Ronald Reagan as secretary of transportation in 1983 and served as secretary of labor during the tenure of George H. W. Bush—Reagan's successor. Czechoslovakia-born Madeleine Albright became the first foreign-born woman to serve in the Cabinet; she was appointed secretary of state in 1997 by President Bill Clinton. Albright was the highest-ranking woman in any U.S. presidential administration to that time. Taiwan-born Elaine Chao became the first foreign-born woman to attain two different Cabinet positions in two different administrations. She was appointed by President George W. Bush as secretary of labor in 2001 and later selected secretary of transportation by President Donald Trump. Chao also became the first Asian American woman to serve in a president’s cabinet. On January 26, 2005, Condoleezza Rice was appointed secretary of state, which is first in the United States presidential line of succession among Cabinet secretaries, which in turn makes her the highest-ranking woman in American history. On January 4, 2007, Nancy Pelosi replaced Rice as the highest-ranking woman in line when she was elected speaker of the House. On January 20, 2021, Kamala Harris overtook Pelosi and became the highest-ranking woman in the line of succession when she was inaugurated as vice president. President Joe Biden named five women as secretaries to his initial Cabinet—former U.S. Representative Marcia Fudge (D-OH) as secretary of housing and urban development, Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm as secretary of energy, U.S. Rep. Deb Haaland (D-NM) as secretary of the interior, Rhode Island Governor Gina Raimondo as secretary of commerce, and Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen as secretary of the treasury; exceeding by one the record set by President Barack Obama. However, including cabinet reshuffles, Obama still holds record for most appointed women to Cabinet positions with eight, the most during any presidency, surpassing George W. Bush's previous number of six. The Department of Labor has had the most women secretaries with seven. The Department of Health and Human Services has had five; the department of Commerce have had four; the departments of Education, Housing and Urban Development, Interior, State, and Transportation have had three; the departments of Energy, Homeland Security, and Justice have had two; the departments of Agriculture and Treasury have had one. The departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs are the only existing Cabinet departments that have not had women secretaries yet. Totals for this list include only women presidential appointees confirmed (if necessary) by the United States Senate to cabinet or cabinet-level positions and taking their oath of office; they do not include acting officials or nominees awaiting confirmation.

  • Cette liste des femmes membres du cabinet présidentiel des États-Unis recense, par administration, toutes les femmes ayant été à la tête de l'un des départements de l'exécutif du gouvernement fédéral des États-Unis, depuis les années 1930. Elles constituent au début des exceptions au sein de la vie politique américaine. Jusqu'en 2021, le cabinet présidentiel a compté 36 femmes. Aucune femme n'est nommée à un poste de secrétaire avant le XIXe amendement de la Constitution des États-Unis, voté en 1920, qui interdit la discrimination de sexe lors des élections, et permet de facto aux femmes de participer aux élections locales et nationales. Frances Perkins est la première femme à intégrer le cabinet présidentiel, en 1933, au sein de l'administration Roosevelt : elle est alors secrétaire au Travail. Oveta Culp Hobby devient la deuxième femme, en 1953, au sein de l'administration Eisenhower, en tant que secrétaire à la Santé, à l'Éducation à la Protection sociale (ce département est scindé en deux départements distincts, en 1979). Patricia Roberts Harris est la première Afro-américaine à devenir membre du cabinet. Elizabeth Dole sert dans deux administrations différentes, à deux postes différents : la première fois comme secrétaire aux Transports en 1983 au sein de l'administration Reagan, puis une seconde fois comme secrétaire au Travail à partir de 1989 dans l'administration G.H.W. Bush. Madeleine Albright, née Tchécoslovaque, est la première Américaine non native des États-Unis, à intégrer le cabinet présidentiel, lorsqu'elle est nommée secrétaire d'État en 1997 : elle est alors la première femme à atteindre une telle place (la quatrième), dans l'ordre de succession présidentielle des États-Unis. En 2006, Nancy Pelosi, présidente de la Chambre des représentants, atteint la troisième place dans cet ordre de succession, devançant alors Condoleezza Rice, qui est secrétaire d'État. Lors de ses deux mandats, le président George W. Bush aura nommé sept femmes, soit plus que n'importe quel autre président américain dans l'Histoire. En 2019, l'administration présidentielle compte deux femmes, en 2021, cinq. Cette année-là, Kamala Harris devient la première femme vice-présidente. Le département du Travail est celui qui compte dans son histoire le plus grand nombre de femmes secrétaires, avec un nombre de sept. Il est suivi par le département de la Santé et des Services sociaux et celui du Commerce, qui en ont compté quatre, puis de ceux de l'Éducation, des Transports, du Logement et de l'Intérieur, qui en ont compté trois. Actuellement, deux départements n'ont jamais eu de femmes à leur tête : la Défense et les Anciens combattants. (fr)

Em 2009, Barack Obama nomeou quatro mulheres para seu gabinete presidencial: Janet Napolitano como Secretária de Segurança Interna, Hillary Clinton como Secretária de Estado, como Secretária do Trabalho e como Secretária de Saúde e Serviços Humanos.
