We are pleased that the Senate has confirmed two extraordinarily qualified individuals, Dana Boente and John Fishwick, to serve as U.S. Attorneys in the Eastern and Western Districts of Virginia. Dana and John received widespread support across the Commonwealth, including from the Virginia State Bar and the American Bar Association. We are delighted our Senate colleagues unanimously supported their nominations today and are confident each will serve Virginia honorably, the Senators said.
