PRESIDENT TRUMP NOMINATES FEDERAL PROSECUTOR TO BE U.S. ATTORNEY FOR NEBRASKA

President Donald Trump has nominated Lesley Woods Murphy to serve as the next U.S. Attorney for the District of Nebraska.

U.S. Sen. Deb Fischer recommended the federal prosecutor for the position.

"And I look forward to her swift confirmation in the United States Senate," Fischer said in a statement.

While her nomination is pending, Woods Murphy has been appointed as the interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Nebraska, effective immediately, replacing acting U.S. Attorney Matthew Molsen.

“Lesley Woods Murphy has spent her career working to bring criminals to justice and ensure the law is firmly enforced. Her experience in complex legal matters, remarkable successes in court, and efforts to improve public safety through strong law enforcement partnerships will no doubt make her an excellent U.S. Attorney for the District of Nebraska," Fischer said.
