MacBride confirmed as Treasury’s top lawyer

adThe Senate voted 61-33 on February 9 to confirm President Biden’s nomination of Neil MacBride to serve as general counsel for the Treasury Department.

 

MacBride joins Treasury from private practice but has prior experience in government, including stints during the Obama administration as associate deputy attorney general for criminal enforcement and as the US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. He also served as chief counsel to then-Sen. Biden on the Senate Judiciary Committee.

 

The president nominated MacBride for the Treasury post in June of last year. The Senate Finance Committee cleared his nomination last December by a vote of 22-6.
