The United States Senate Judiciary Committee voted to advance the nomination of Timothy VerHey ‘87 J.D. to be U.S. attorney for the Western District of Michigan. VerHey was appointed to be interim U.S. attorney in July 2025. He was nominated in April by President Donald Trump to keep the job, which serves as the chief federal prosecutor, supervising a staff of about 70 for the district that covers Michigan's western Lower Peninsula and all of the Upper Peninsula.
