FRIST COMMENTS ON SENATE CONFIRMATION OF MICHAEL CHERTOFF AS HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY
Floor Statement -- Remarks As Prepared For Delivery

February 15th, 2005 - We are about to vote on the nomination of Judge Michael Chertoff to lead the Department of Homeland Security. I applaud President Bush for his outstanding choice, and I am confident that Judge Chertoff will receive overwhelming support from both sides of the aisle, making this his fourth confirmation by the United States Senate.

Judge Chertoff has a long and distinguished career in public service and law enforcement.

The Harvard Law magna cum laude first made his name in the mid-80’s putting away five of the biggest Mafia bosses in New York.

His success brought him the job of US attorney in New Jersey where he oversaw high profile and politically sensitive prosecutions.

In 2001, Judge Chertoff was chosen by President Bush to lead the Justice Department’s criminal division.

It was there that Judge Chertoff would show his full mettle. For the twenty hours following the attacks on 9/11, Judge Chertoff was central in directing our response.

His team in the criminal division traced the 9/11 killers back to Al Qaeda. And for the next two years, Judge Chertoff helped craft our anti-terrorism policy.

Judge Chertoff’s experience working directly with law enforcement, his expertise in homeland and national security, and his proven ability to lead in times of national crisis make him overwhelmingly qualified to direct our homeland security.

Judge Chertoff has said that he will be proud to stand again with the men and women who form our front line against terror.

I know I speak for many when I say we are proud to have a man of his caliber and talent serving and protecting the American people.
