Grassley Comment on Resignation of Rachel Brand
WASHINGTON – Senate
Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley today made the following statement
regarding the resignation of Assistant Attorney General Rachel Brand:
“Rachel
Brand is an incredibly talented lawyer and Iowa native who has served our
country very well in her role as Associate Attorney General. As the Justice
Department’s #3 official, Ms. Brand admirably led the litigating divisions on
the civil side of the department. She oversaw the department’s efforts to
combat human trafficking, to fight the opioid crisis, and to hold sanctuary
cities accountable to the rule of law. I thank her for her service and wish Ms.
Brand continued great success in her next career venture.”
