Along with Senator Rockefeller, I want to thank the Chairman and members of the Committee.

I would like to thank Senator Jay Rockefeller for recommending Judge Groh for this prestigious position.

I am proud to call her a fellow West Virginian, and I hope that the Committee will move to confirm her for the vacancy quickly.

It is my privilege to join my senior Senator, Senator Rockefeller, in support of the nomination of Stephanie Dawn Thacker.
