WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) issued the following statement after voting to confirm Bill Barr as the United States Attorney General:
“Throughout his decades of public service, Bill Barr has put the rule of law ahead of partisan politics and he has earned a tremendous amount of respect from both sides of the aisle. During his confirmation process, he made it clear he is the right choice to lead the men and women who serve in the Department of Justice, and I am thankful for his commitment to allow the special counsel investigation to continue to completion. I look forward to working with him to make progress on important issues like improving our nation’s intellectual property system.”
