Tom Cotton vows to block Biden US attorney nominee Rachael Rollins, who has lengthy do-not-prosecute list
Fox News
Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., on Thursday vowed to block President Biden's nominee to lead the U.S. attorney's office in Massachusetts, saying her soft-on-crime approach as a district attorney would only add to the rising crime wave across the country.
"These actions resulted in a historic increase in murders and contributed to the crime wave," he added. "Rachael Rollins won't stand up for the victims of these crimes, and I will seek to stop her nomination." Rollins, the district attorney for Suffolk County, is expected to be confirmed by the Senate this fall, unless a Democratic senator votes against her. If confirmed, she would become the first Black woman to serve as U.S. attorney for Massachusetts.More Related News
