The Cabinet of Cascadia is the chief executive body of the Republic of Cascadia. It is a body consisting of the vice president of Cascadia and the heads of the executive branch's departments in the government of Cascadia. It is the principal official advisory body to the president of Cascadia. The president chairs the meetings but is not formally a member of the Cabinet. The heads of departments, appointed by the president and confirmed by the House of Representatives, are the members of the Cabinet.

The Cabinet does not have any collective executive powers or functions of its own, and no votes need to be taken. As of now, there are 5 department heads in the current Cabinet. The members of the Cabinet serve at the pleasure of the president, who can dismiss them at any time without the approval of the House. Like all federal public officials, Cabinet members are also subject to impeachment by the House of Representatives and trial for "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors".

The Constitution of Cascadia establishes the Cabinet in Article IV Section 3, authorizing the vice president, together with a majority of the heads of the executive departments, to declare the president "unable to discharge the powers and duties of their office". However, the Cabinet's real role, inferred from the language of the Opinion Clause (Article IV, Section 4) of the Constitution is to provide advice to the president. The heads of the executive departments are eligible—in the presidential line of succession. Until September 20, 2022, the Cabinet was referred to as the Executive Council of Cascadia.

The incumbent and twelfth cabinet of Cascadia, in office since August 20, 2023, is the cabinet of President DaCorgoKing.
