Restoring Executive Power To Appoint United States Attorneys Act of 2025

This bill changes how U.S. attorneys are appointed by removing provisions that allowed temporary appointments during vacancies. It requires that any U.S. attorney appointed under current rules serves until the President directly appoints a replacement. The bill affects U.S. Attorney positions nationwide and the process for filling vacancies in federal prosecutor roles. The key provision eliminates existing rules permitting interim appointments, making presidential appointment the standard procedure.
