I just finished a productive conversation with Tony Blinken,President-elect Biden's nominee for Secretary of State, about the difficult challenges and exciting opportunities that lie ahead for the United States and the Biden Administration. I have known and worked with Tony for more than a decade, and I am confident that he will be a successful, effective diplomatforour country. As a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, I look forward to Tony's confirmation hearings, and I plan to advocate for his quick confirmation with both my Democratic and Republican colleagues. Fromrebuilding confidence in American leadershiptorestoring our alliances around the world, Tony and the State Department have critical work to do, and I plan to do everything I can to support those efforts in the Senate. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
