WASHINGTON, D.C. –– Today, House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark E. Green, MD (R-TN) issued the following statement applauding the U.S. Senate’s confirmation of Kristi Noem to serve as Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS):
 
“I applaud the Senate for voting to confirm an experienced leader who will prioritize the safety and security of the American people. With nearly two decades of distinguished public service, Kristi Noem is exceptionally qualified to advance President Trump’s mission to secure our borders and protect the homeland. 
 
“Amid growing threats to the homeland, I have full confidence that Secretary Noem will lead the department with strength, integrity, and accountability—a stark contrast to the leadership of the past four years. The House Homeland Security Committee looks forward to working with her alongside the frontline men and women of DHS to restore its vital mission.”
