WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on デンマーク ポルノ映画 jkFeb. 16 announced five nominees for U.S. attorney, including Kenji Price in the District of Hawaii.
Price is currently the interim U.S. attorney in that district.

Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii) said in a statement, “Kenji Price is an excellent choice to serve as the U.S. attorney for the District of Hawaii, and I look forward to having him serve in that role. Kenji has previous experience as an assistant U.S. attorney and in private practice in Hawaii, and he has also served with distinction as a U.S. Army Ranger. Additionally, as a graduate of Mililani High School, Kenji has a keen understanding of our community, which will serve him well in this position.”

I am confident he will excel in this role as he has in every other.”
