Young Will Support Tulsi Gabbard for DNI

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Todd Young (R-Ind.) today issued the following statement in support of Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence:

“American intelligence officers around the globe deserve our respect and support. I appreciate Tulsi Gabbard’s engagement with me on a variety of issues to ensure that our intelligence professionals will be supported and policymakers will receive unbiased information under her leadership. I have done what the Framers envisioned for senators to do: use the consultative process to seek firm commitments, in this case commitments that will advance our national security, which is my top priority as a former Marine Corps intelligence officer. Having now secured these commitments, I will support Tulsi’s nomination and look forward to working with her to protect our national security.”

Gabbard provided Senator Young with the attached letter regarding her nomination.
