On the recordDecember 9, 2024
today, the Senate will vote to confirm Tiffany Johnson to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. Ms. Johnson's impressive career in public service, combined with her Federal court experience, will make her an excellent addition to the Federal bench. After earning her B.A. from Princeton University and her J.D. from Wake Forest University School of Law, Ms. Johnson began her career in private practice as an associate at Parker, Hudson, Rainer & Dobbs, LLP, where she focused on a wide range of complex commercial litigation. In 2017, Ms. Johnson transitioned to public service, joining the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Georgia as an assistant U.S. attorney. In that role, she has litigated both civil and criminal cases in all stages of proceedings, from conducting fact and expert depositions in civil matters, to prosecuting white-collar and public corruption crimes. Ms. Johnson has the strong support of her home State Senators, Mr. Ossoff and Mr. Warnock. In addition, she was rated ``well qualified'' by the American Bar Association. I urge my colleagues to support Ms. Johnson's nomination.
