Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman\u2019s chief of staff is leaving her post, two people familiar with the matter confirmed to POLITICO on Tuesday. The move is yet another key departure for a congressional office that\u2019s been marked by turnover amid mounting questions about the Democrat’s health and shifting political persona.<\/p>\n
Axios first reported<\/a> Krysta Sinclair Juris\u2019 plans to part ways with Fetterman\u2019s office.<\/p>\n POLITICO has learned Cabelle St. John, who previously served as Fetterman\u2019s deputy chief of staff, senior adviser and scheduling director, is taking over as his new top aide.<\/p>\n \u201cCabelle St. John has been a trusted advisor since day 1 in the office. I\u2019m lucky to have her taking over as my Chief of Staff and I\u2019m confident she\u2019ll do a great job,\u201d Fetterman said in a statement. \u201cI\u2019m grateful for Krysta\u2019s work. She\u2019s been an invaluable member of the team for over two years and I wish her all the best.\u201d<\/p>\n In the last year and a half, the senator\u2019s former chief of staff, Adam Jentleson, top communications aides and legislative director all left his team. Two more aides departed Fetterman\u2019s office<\/a> in the last couple months.<\/p>\n In a Monday debate in Boston with Sen. Dave McCormick (R-Pa.), Fetterman said that reporting about his missing votes and committee hearings is a \u201cweird smear.\u201d Previously, he criticized a New York magazine article<\/a> about former and current aides who expressed concerns about his health \u201ca one-source hit piece.\u201d<\/p>\n
