There are 15 Cabinet level Executive Departments. In addition, 6 other non-department administrative agency heads have cabinet level rank, including the Vice President of the United States, Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Trade Representative, the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, the Director of National Drug Control Policy, amd the White House Chief of Staff. There is also discussion of the Ambassador to the United Nations and the Director of National Intelligence holding 'Cabinet level rank', so, depending on how one wants to define their participation in the Cabinet, the answer can range from 15 to 23. The next presidential administration may amend this further. All are appointed by the President subject to confirmation by the Senate.
