Katie Miller
Exited govt: 5/29/25 (verified)
The wife of Stephen Miller, Katie is in some sort of communications role for DOGE, but it’s unclear what her day-to-day responsibilities for his entail. Sharing the virulent anti-immigrant politics of her husband, she likely has been a conduit for coordinating DOGE’s anti-immigration focus. Recently, she notably left DOGE along with Elon Musk to go work for him instead.

She also reportedly advised that DOGE should strive to collaborate with Cabinet secretaries more instead of pushiing cuts or projects on them that they didn’t want to do.
