Biden Cabinet Picks: Who Could Be President-Elect's White House Staff Members?

President-elect Joe Biden is expected to announce his first Cabinet picks on Tuesday, according to top advisers.

During an interview with ABC News on Sunday, incoming White House chief of staff Ron Klain confirmed that Biden is set to announce cabinet appointments on Nov. 24.

"If you want to know what cabinet agencies they are, who's going to be in those Cabinet agencies, you'll have to wait for the president-elect to say that himself on Tuesday," Klain said.

Senior adviser Kate Bedingfield also confirmed the report during an interview on "Fox News Sunday." She said the president-elect is "very excited" about the announcement, according to Politico.

"We will be making our first Cabinet announcements on Tuesday of this week, and I would say the president-elect is very excited about this team and looks forward to introducing them to the country," Bedingfield said.

Biden, who is working from his home in Delaware, is expected to fill multiple White House posts. While the former vice president's team have refused to disclose other information about the picks, senior adviser Jennifer Psaki said Biden's Cabinet members would be "diverse."

"Their Cabinet and the team will look like America, so that means diversity of ideology, and he wants to have a range of views of people at the table," Psaki said on CNN's "State of the Union."
