Senate Confirms New U.S. Attorney in Minnesota
Rosen was confirmed with a 50-45 Senate vote to replace Acting U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson and brings over 30 years of federal and state litigation experience.
- On Tuesday, the U.S. Senate confirmed Daniel Rosen as U.S. Attorney for the District of Minnesota, installing him as the state's top federal prosecutor.
- After a May nomination, Rosen earned cross-party backing following recommendation by a bipartisan committee led by Rep. Tom Emmer and Senators Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith.
- A University of Minnesota Law School graduate, Rosen has more than 30 years of federal and state litigation experience and won Minnesota's largest eminent domain case.
- Rosen will take over for Acting U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson, who took over for Andrew Luger in June, and led the $200 million Feeding Our Future case.
- His approval came through a 50-45 en bloc vote, a process tied to a Senate rules change by Republican Senate leaders, and Tom Emmer praised Rosen's commitment to public safety.
