I am honored to be before you to introduce Harold Hongju Koh of New Haven, CT.

I am proud to recommend that you recommend to the full Senate that we confirm the nomination of Harold Hongju Koh.

I very much hope that you will favorably report on the nomination of Harold Hongju Koh--a great American--to this important post.

Dean Koh is a brilliant scholar--one of the great legal minds of his generation.
