Fetterman's Chief of Staff Resigns Amid Office Turnover
Cabelle St. John, chief of staff to Senator John Fetterman, has resigned, marking the latest in a series of staff departures from the Pennsylvania Democrat's office.
Cabelle St. John, chief of staff to Senator John Fetterman, has resigned, according to sources familiar with the situation. St. John, who has been part of Fetterman's team since he arrived in Washington approximately three and a half years ago, assumed the role of chief of staff in 2025.
This resignation adds to ongoing concerns about staff retention within Fetterman's office, which have been reportedly affected by scrutiny over the senator's health and his shifting political identity.
Fetterman has not confirmed St. John's exit but did not deny it in a text to Axios.
The news comes as Fetterman's office sees high turnover because former aides are frustrated with his continual support for Israel in its war with Iran and friendlier approach toward President Donald Trump.
Fetterman is known to be one of the most bipartisan members of Congress, siding with Republicans on votes related to Iran, border security, and the construction of the White House ballroom. But he has declined to switch parties and primarily votes with the Democrats.
