Biden ATF nominee Dettelbach faces high-stakes Senate confirmation after previous pick fizzled
Fox News
President Biden's ATF nominee Steve Dettelbach is seeking to be the first confirmed ATF director since 2015.
Dettelbach got some early bipartisan support Monday when multiple GOP-appointed federal prosecutors announced their support for him, as first reported by Fox News. Among them were former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, a Trump appointee, and former Assistant Attorney General for National Security Kenneth Wainstein, a Bush appointee.
"Steve has devoted his career to public service, establishing himself as a leader with a reputation for building and leading strong law enforcement partnerships, for acting with absolute professionalism and without regard to politics or partisanship, and for always giving his all to fight crime and protect victims," Wainstein said.
