## Key points

- Miller’s memo gives Cabinet secretaries more control over department messaging.
- The Cabinet Secretary role is being renamed Director of Cabinet Relations.
- The memo also sets out changes to scheduling and policy roles.

## Summary

A memo issued after Stephen Miller became White House chief of staff describes a change in how the Trump administration supports Cabinet departments. It gives Cabinet secretaries more scope to lead their departments’ communications, signalling a move away from the tighter, administration-wide messaging control attributed by sources to former chief of staff Susie Wiles.

The memo renames the Cabinet Secretary role Director of Cabinet Relations, with a focus on supporting Cabinet leaders. It also says presidential scheduling staff will report to deputy director Chamberlain Harris and confirms Caleb Orr will become chief of staff for policy. Sources quoted in the article describe the change as a shift towards trusting departments to communicate on their own, while one former official alleges Wiles used pressure to enforce control.
