I am pleased to nominate Peter Mansfield, who has the strong support of Senator John Kennedy and Senator Bill Cassidy, to serve as Judge on the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. Peter has been an Assistant U.S. Attorney in New Orleans for more than twenty years, currently working as Chief of the Civil Division and, previously, as First Assistant. He received his Law Degree from Ave Maria School of Law, and his Undergraduate Degree from Franciscan University of Steubenville. The people of Louisiana are lucky to have a dedicated Public Servant like Peter join the Federal Bench. Congratulations Peter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
