A hub for presidential transitions

The Center for Presidential Transition® launches, immediately becoming the premier nonpartisan resource for presidential candidates and their teams as they prepare to begin a new administration or a president’s second term. Soon after its founding, the center creates a first-of-its-kind political appointee tracker with The Washington Post to chart the status of Senate-confirmed appointees and hold administrations and Congress accountable for filling critical positions.

“Any serious political campaign should work with the Partnership and the Center for Presidential Transition®. They are the guides you need, and they have no agenda other than making the federal government work better.”— Josh Bolten, White House chief of staff, 2006-2009
