Trump Announces Key DOJ Appointments and Federal Railroad Administrator

The president-elect names Chad Mizelle and Aaron Reitz to pivotal Department of Justice roles and David Fink to lead the Federal Railroad Administration.

Chad Mizelle, a former DHS official and Trump administration veteran, is appointed as Chief of Staff at the Department of Justice.
Aaron Reitz, previously Chief of Staff to Sen. Ted Cruz, will head the DOJ's Office of Legal Policy to advance Trump’s 'Law and Order Agenda.'
Both Mizelle and Reitz will work closely with Attorney General nominee Pam Bondi after her expected Senate confirmation.
David Fink, a fifth-generation railroader with decades of experience, is selected to lead the Federal Railroad Administration, focusing on safety and innovation.
These appointments align with Trump’s priorities on immigration enforcement, judicial policy, and infrastructure safety as he prepares for his second term.
