President Donald Trump’s latest moves span White House personnel, military terminology, immigration policy, election legislation and federal regulation, reflecting the administration’s broader “America First” agenda.

From appointing Will Scharf as White House counsel to supporting the SAVE Act and imposing new costs on H-1B sponsorship, the Trump administration is continuing to advance a wide-ranging second-term policy agenda.

President Donald Trump is moving forward with a series of personnel and policy changes that touch some of the most closely watched issues of his second administration.

The moves include a new White House counsel, expanded use of the historic “Department of War” title, tougher restrictions surrounding H-1B visas and renewed pressure on Congress to pass legislation requiring proof of citizenship for federal elections.

Taken together, the announcements illustrate the administration’s continued emphasis on immigration enforcement, executive authority, deregulation, national security and what Trump describes as an “America First” approach to governing.

Scharf Set to Become White House Counsel

One of the most significant personnel changes involves Will Scharf, who has been serving as White House Staff Secretary.

Trump announced that Scharf will become the next White House counsel, succeeding David Warrington. Scharf previously worked as a federal prosecutor and has held senior government roles.
