Caputo Applauds Ihlenfeld’s Nomination

Charleston, WV - Senator William Ihlenfeld, Jr. (D-Ohio) has been nominated by President Biden to serve as US Attorney for the Northern District of West Virginia. If confirmed, Ihlenfeld will resume the role he previously held from 2010-2016. During his previous tenure, Ihlenfeld’s office focused on white-collar crime, the opioid epidemic, and civil rights infringements. “It couldn’t have happened for a better guy,” said Senator Mike Caputo (D-Marion).

Ihlenfeld was elected to the Senate in 2018 and will remain in his seat during the confirmations process. “I look forward to continuing to serve with Senator Ihlenfeld in the Senate until his confirmation,” said Caputo. “He brings a balanced and thoughtful perspective to all legislation and is a superstar at presenting convincing arguments. I’ve never served with a member quite as fit to represent the interests of the US government through litigation as Senator Ihlenfeld.”
