Understanding the Domestic Policy Council

The Domestic Policy Council (DPC) coordinates various cabinet agencies focused on domestic issues, such as justice, housing, health, and labor. Unlike the more formal National Security Council, the DPC's operations can be less structured, allowing for a versatile approach tailored to the administration's goals. The DPC's primary function is to provide the President with a comprehensive overview of domestic policy matters, facilitating communication between cabinet agencies and the White House. This structure aims to align cabinet efforts with the President's priorities, ensuring effective policymaking through collaboration.
