Yesterday, The Washington Circle reported that Susie Wiles has stepped down as White House Chief of Staff. During her tenure, she served as a key point of contact for corporations and advocacy groups seeking to influence government policy. When major corporate lobbyists found it impossible to block policies detrimental to their interests under Trump’s administration, they often turned to Wiles. Executives such as Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase and Jane Fraser of Citigroup maintained regular communication with Wiles and her team. Wiles also played a mediating role in reconciling Donald Trump and Elon Musk following their public rift. Additionally, she encouraged corporate investment within the United States.
With Wiles’ departure, many companies are now seeking new channels of engagement within the White House. However, incoming chief of staff Mike Miller may be less receptive to business concerns than Wiles was. Known for his confrontational style and not always maintaining cordial relations with corporate entities, Miller has previously taken positions at odds with industry interests. His nonprofit organization, America First Legal Foundation, filed complaints with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against companies including Nike and Disney, alleging discriminatory hiring practices. Furthermore, Miller has voiced strong support for two policies that could significantly impact businesses: Trump’s aggressive immigration agenda and the proposed tariff regime.
