Cornyn Statement on Nomination of Jack Lew for Treasury Secretary
WASHINGTON--Today, U.S. Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), a member of the Senate Finance Committee, issued the following statement on the nomination of Jack Lew for Treasury Secretary:
"Under Jack Lew's leadership at the Office of Management and Budget, we saw trillion dollar deficits and no serious attempt to rein in spending. As President Obama's Chief of Staff, we've seen on-going dilatory tactics as the nation stares down one fiscal crisis after another. While Mr. Lew deserves a fair hearing, Texans deserve to hear the President's plan for cutting spending and balancing our budget."
Senator Cornyn serves on the Finance and Judiciary Committees. He serves as the top Republican on the Judiciary Committee's Immigration, Refugees and Border Security subcommittee. He served previously as Texas Attorney General, Texas Supreme Court Justice, and Bexar County District Judge.
