WH Sends Termination Letters To Many Biden-Appointed US AttorneyS

Current and former Justice Department attorneys say that although it is common for U.S. Attorneys to resign following a change in the presidential administration, typically the incoming administration requests their resignations rather than sending them tersely worded termination letters.

More than two dozen of Biden’s appointed U.S. Attorneys remained in their positions as of Wednesday. As of Thursday, their offices said at least three were still employed.

There was no response from the White House. Several requests for comment from the U.S. Department of Justice were not answered.
