As the Senate confirmation process faces increasing delays and challenges, over 80 executive branch positions have been vacant more than 50% of the time since 2009. The latest report from the Partnership for Public Service's Center for Presidential Transition® highlights these persistently vacant positions, including key roles such as the Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Cabinet department Chief Financial Officers. The analysis explores the causes of these vacancies and underscores the detrimental impact on agency performance, public service, and Congressional oversight. Reducing the number of Senate-confirmed positions and implementing other reforms is crucial to improving the efficiency of the confirmation process. Read the report to understand the critical insights into the Senate confirmation challenges and their implications for government functionality. https://lnkd.in/gKEa6_ND
