‘I’ve known every White House Counsel since I arrived in Washington. Even in such impressive company, Don is a cut above. He concludes his tenure not only as the best White House Counsel I’ve seen on the job,

but more broadly, as one of the most successful and consequential aides to any president in recent memory.’

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) released the following statement regarding Don McGahn:

“Don McGahn has served the president and the nation with great distinction as White House Counsel.

“President Trump could not have asked for a more dedicated advisor, particularly concerning the successful confirmations of Justice Gorsuch, Justice Kavanaugh and so many other excellent judicial nominees.

“I’ve known every White House Counsel since I arrived in Washington. Even in such impressive company, Don is a cut above.

He concludes his tenure not only as the best White House Counsel I’ve seen on the job, but more broadly, as one of the most successful and consequential aides to any president in recent memory.

“It has been my pleasure to work closely with Don for some time now, particularly over the past two years. His significance to our nation and its independent judiciary cannot be overstated.

I wish him every success in his new endeavors and look forward to his continued efforts on behalf of our country.”
