“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. I am thankful for his commitment to allow the special counsel investigation to continue to completion and believe he is an outstanding choice for Attorney General. I look forward to getting him confirmed.”
