Great news! Congratulations, Katie.

It is an honor to congratulate Katie on her nomination to serve as the next federal judge in Montana. During her two years in my office as deputy solicitor general, Katie played an integral role in defending Montana’s laws and challenging the Biden administration’s unconstitutional mandates. President Trump could not have made a better pick as I am confident she will bring valuable experience and integrity to the bench and look forward to welcoming her back to the state.
