“Mr. President, I come to the floor today to support two remarkable, dedicated, and exceptionally qualified nominees to serve on the U.S. District Court of New Jersey: Mr. Michael Farbiarz and Mr. Robert Kirsch. Both nominees represent the best that our State has to offer. Both have served with distinction in various roles. Both deserve to be swiftly confirmed to the district court. Consider the distinguished public service career of Mr. Farbiarz. A resident of Glen Ridge, NJ, he has served as an assistant U.S. attorney, as cochief of the Terrorism and International Narcotics Unit, and general counsel of the New York-New Jersey Port Authority. His relentless work ethic in every role has made him a shining star in New Jersey's legal community--a representation that is not given but earned. And whether serving in the leadership roles that he has had, enforcing our laws as a Federal prosecutor, or providing legal counsel to those who serve on the Port Authority commission, his breadth and depth of legal experience prepare him well to continue his service to the Garden State as a fair and effective Federal judge. Like Mr. Farbiarz, Robert Kirsch is a dedicated public servant who has been capably serving on the Superior Court of New Jersey for over a decade. A native of South Orange, he was sponsored for his position by then-State Senator Tom Kean, Jr., a Republican, and was appointed by Governor Corzine, a Democrat.…”
