Coats to Oppose Lynch Nomination for Attorney General
Statement
Issues: Executive Branch
Senator Dan Coats (R-Ind.) today announced he will oppose the nomination of Loretta Lynch to be attorney general of the United States:
"Ms. Lynch's expressed view that President Obama's executive amnesty is lawful demonstrates that she is not the right person to serve as our country's chief law enforcement officer. The executive branch cannot write laws or selectively enforce them based on political prerogatives. We need an independent attorney general who will enforce the law as written."
