Administration and cabinet
After 16 years of Republican control of the White House, Mason's primary talent pool was Congress rather than past cabinets. Samuel Clay, Jaime Elzar-Toledo, Elizabeth Rosenbaum, Sam Russell and Ronald Scott have all served in Mason's cabinet or inner circle.
Mason's approach tends to be "hands-off", and he tends to be more likely to delegate responsibilities to members of his cabinet. This is a change from Elizabeth Warren's more "hands-on" approach.
