With all the election madness, it's easy to get caught up in the headlines. But here's a reminder: the Commissioner of Social Security serves a six-year term. This means their role is not really affected by who's in the White House.
Take, for example, Michael J. Astrue. He was sworn in as the Commissioner back in February 2007 under President George W. Bush. He served through January 2013, even during President Obama’s administration.
So there’s a precedent for commissioners serving across multiple presidencies.
