Wolf has been acting head of Department of Homeland Security since November 2019, following the resignation of Kevin McAleenan—who was not confirmed by congress.
The last Senate-confirmed secretary of DHS was Kirstjen Nielsen. Nielsen resigned in April 2019 and it has now been over 500 days since there was a Senate-confirmed secretary leading the DHS.
