“I’ve known Jim for almost 20 years, and have always found him to be a person willing to try new methods and innovative tools – while adhering to our most treasured values – in keeping the American people safe. He is a seasoned prosecutor – and former United States Attorney – whose impeccable judgment has set him apart from his peers. He is a proven leader – and former Deputy Attorney General – whose formidable intellect, indisputable integrity, and unwavering dedication to the rule of law will undoubtedly serve him well as FBI Director.
"Above all, Jim is, and has always been, a faithful servant of the American people. I am confident that he will be a superb FBI Director, providing the strong and steady leadership that the Bureau’s extraordinary men and women deserve. I applaud the President’s decision to nominate Jim Comey and I look forward to working closely with him, upon his confirmation, to continue protecting the American people from financial fraud, violent crime and terrorism.”
