WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) – chairman of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies – today released the following statement after the resignation of Attorney General Jeff Sessions:

“Jeff Sessions served our country honorably and fulfilled the duties that were statutorily required of him. As Chairman of the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Subcommittee, it was an honor to host Attorney General Sessions recently in Kansas, and I am appreciative of his work to ensure Kansas has the resources it needs to keep our communities safe. I expect that during this transition period, the Department will make certain federal law enforcement agencies continue to protect our country, carry out the rule of law and allow the Special Counsel investigation to continue unimpeded.”
