De amerikanske ministerier ledes hver af en minister, som udnævnes af USA's præsident, og som skal godkendes af Senatet. For eksempel ledes udenrigsministeriet af udenrigsministeren (Secretary of State), som for nuværende (siden 2021) er Antony Blinken.

Alle ministre er medlemmer af det amerikanske kabinet, som er den øverste politiske ledelse af det amerikanske samfund. Ministerie
