Senator Eric Schmitt has publicly expressed his support for the confirmation of Pam Bondi as the new U.S. Attorney General. Following a decisive vote in the Senate, Schmitt released a statement to acknowledge Bondi's ascent to the prominent role.
"I want to congratulate Pam on her confirmation as the next U.S. Attorney General following today’s Senate vote. I’ve known Pam both as a colleague and friend, and I have full confidence that she will do an outstanding job leading the Justice Department as our next Attorney General," Schmitt stated. He also voiced his belief that Bondi's leadership would focus on "reversing the disastrous weaponization that's occurred at the Justice Department," while emphasizing justice and rights protection.
Pam Bondi, with her new role as the U.S. Attorney General, is expected to bring changes to the Justice Department. The trust and endorsement from peers like Schmitt may play a role in how she is perceived in her new position.
