{{Short description|High-level officials who oversee a particular policy}} {{use mdy dates |date=August 2023}} In the United States, the informal term "czar" (or, less often, "tsar") is employed in media and popular usage to refer to high-level executive branch officials who oversee a particular policy field. The earliest known use of the term for a U.S. government official was in the administration of Franklin Roosevelt (1933–1945), during which eleven unique positions (or twelve if one were to count "economic czar" and "economic czar of World War II" as distinct) were so described.<ref>{{Cite magazine| last = James| first = Randy| title = A Brief History of White House Czars| magazine = TIME| access-date = 2025-05-30| date = 2009-09-23| url = https://time.com/3516927/history-of-white-house-czars/}}</ref>

The list of those identified as czars is based on subjective judgments, as individuals or offices may be referred to with the nickname by some publications or public figures, while not by others. A more limited (though no less subjective) definition of the term would encompass only those officials appointed without Senate confirmation.

The numbers are based upon the sortable list below, which includes further details and references.

Note that the holders of certain official positions have been referred to as "czars" for only part of the time those positions have existed. For example, there has been an Assistant Secretary of Labor for Mine Safety and Health since the passage of the Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, but the phrase "mine safety czar" has been applied to the position only since the appointment of Richard Stickler to the post in 2006. Similarly, there has been a director of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs since the office was created by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, but the term "regulatory czar" was not applied to the post until 2001.

==List of executive branch czars== The following are executive branch officials who have been described by the media as a czar of some kind.
