Rubio Statement on Olsen Nomination

Aug 11, 2021 | Press Releases

Washington, D.C. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Vice Chairman Marco Rubio (R-FL) released a statement after opposing the nomination of Matt Olsen to be Assistant Attorney General for the National Security Division.

“Although I appreciate Mr. Olsen’s prior public service, he no longer has the credibility necessary to fill this important role given the partisan nature of his post-government writings,” Rubio said. “Institutions are only as good as the American public’s confidence in them, and Mr. Olsen would further undermine public confidence in America’s national security institutions.”
