Re: Confirmation of Ed Martin as U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia
Dear Senator Grassley:
We the Undersigned, on behalf of a broad coalition of conservative and non-partisan groups committed to upholding the principles of constitutional government and the rule of law, respectfully urge your expeditious confirmation of Ed Martin as the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia.
Our coalition firmly believes that Mr. Martin’s appointment is of critical importance to the future of our nation’s justice system. In an era when the administrative state shows a worrying pattern of overreach and undue influence, Mr. Martin stands as a beacon of principled integrity and unwavering commitment to the Constitution. His record, as detailed in the shared documentation available at edmartin.org, demonstrates his expertise in navigating complex legal challenges while remaining dedicated to ensuring that governmental power is exercised within its proper bounds.
Specifically, we believe that Mr. Martin is:
- A Critical Voice for the Rule of Law: Mr. Martin’s extensive experience in legal practice and public service has equipped him to counteract the expanding influence of an administrative state intent on exceeding its lawful authority. His legal acumen is essential for ensuring accountability and preserving the balance of power within federal institutions.
- Committed to the Restoration of Judicial Integrity: In today’s political climate, the integrity of our judicial system is paramount. Mr. Martin’s proven commitment to fairness and impartiality will serve as an invaluable asset in maintaining public trust in our legal institutions. His approach will help recalibrate the current trends of governmental overreach, reinforcing the constitutional limits that protect individual rights and freedoms.
The undersigned organizations, alongside our extensive networks and resources, are prepared to actively support Mr. Martin’s confirmation. We are united in our belief that appointing him is not only a corrective measure but also a necessary step toward reestablishing responsible law enforcement practices and curbing the unchecked expansion of administrative discretion.
The collective expertise and principled stances represented by our coalition underscore the urgency of this nomination. We are convinced that Ed Martin’s leadership as United States Attorney will serve as a catalyst for positive change, fostering an environment where the law is applied fairly and government actions remain fully accountable to the Constitution.
We respectfully request that you give full consideration to this matter and act expeditiously in confirming Ed Martin. Our coalition stands ready to lend any further support necessary to advance this vital appointment.
Thank you for your attention and commitment to upholding our nation’s constitutional principles.
Sincerely,
