Her prior experience under President George W. Bush at the White House Homeland Security Council, the Transportation Security Administration, and more recently, DHS, have prepared her well to take over this critical role in protecting our nation. I look forward to working with her in the coming years to keep America and her citizens safe as we face an increasingly large and troubling range of threats.” Print Email Tweet Next Article | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
