WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Katie Britt (R-Ala.) today voted in favor of Tulsi Gabbard to serve as President Trump’s Director of National Intelligence.

“Today, I voted to confirm Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence because she will do everything in her power to keep Americans safe and ensure our homeland is secure,” said Senator Britt. “When I met with her in my office, she highlighted the importance of analytical objectivity in this role and painting a complete picture to help President Trump make critical decisions with all of the information. I have faith in Director Gabbard’s ability to ensure the intelligence community is focused on its true mission by making key reforms that take biased bureaucracy out of national security.
