It is my honor to nominate Justin Olson to serve as Judge on the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana! Graduating magna cum laude from the Indiana University Maurer School of Law, Justin previously distinguished himself at the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Indianapolis and, as a litigator, has been fighting tirelessly to keep men out of women’s sports. Hoosiers can trust Justin to always uphold the Rule of Law, and strongly protect their Constitutional Rights. Congratulations Justin!
I am pleased to nominate Megan Benton to serve as Judge on the United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri. Megan earned her J.D. from the highly respected Vanderbilt University Law School, worked as a prosecutor in the Platte County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office, and is currently delivering strong results for the Rule of Law as a Trial Court Judge in Platte County. The Great State of Missouri deserves a fighter like Megan who will always protect our Constitution, and ensure Liberty and Justice FOR ALL. Congratulations Megan!
I am honored to nominate Brian Lea to serve as Judge on the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Tennessee! Brian has tremendous experience, currently serving as a Deputy Associate Attorney General for the Department of Justice and, previously, as Law Clerk to Justice Clarence Thomas and Judge Ed Carnes. Brian received his J.D. from the University of Georgia School of Law, and B.A. from Union University (where he was a terrific baseball player!). In his new role, Brian will boldly defend our Constitution, and prioritize LAW AND ORDER in Tennessee — HE WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN. Congratulations Brian!
