                  Nomination of John Andrew Eisenberg

  Mr. COTTON. Mr. President, today, I speak to urge my colleagues to 
confirm John Eisenberg as the next Assistant Attorney General for the 
National Security Division at the Department of Justice.
  With more than two decades of government service, there is no 
question that Mr. Eisenberg has the experience, the know-how, and the 
qualifications needed to fulfill the duties and responsibilities of 
this important position.
  In addition to his wide-ranging and impressive resume, I should note 
that Mr. Eisenberg also worked at the Department of Justice when the 
National Security Division was created in the first place. In fact, he 
was part of the very team that envisioned the Division's role in using 
our law to help protect our Nation against national security threats.
  So I believe Mr. Eisenberg will bring an invaluable breadth of 
experience and depth of knowledge to this role that would advance 
America's national security.
  Mr. Eisenberg is a family man, a patriot, and an exemplary American. 
I commend President Trump for nominating him to the position of 
Assistant Attorney General for the National Security Division.
  I thank Mr. Eisenberg for his willingness to answer the call to serve 
once again.
  I urge my colleagues to vote in favor of his confirmation.
