U.S. Attorney’s Office, Southern District of New York
I am honored to serve as United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, alongside the women and men of the U.S. Attorney’s Office, an institution synonymous with excellence and integrity. I would like to thank President Trump and Attorney General Bondi for this remarkable opportunity. Along with the talented prosecutors of this Office and our law enforcement partners, I look forward to protecting public safety, combatting fraud, particularly on the elderly and most vulnerable, ensuring the integrity of our financial system, and defending our national security. Finally, I want to thank Acting United States Attorney Matthew Podolsky for his leadership and service.
Clayton was sworn in on April 24 on an interim basis after US Senator Chuck Schumer blocked his confirmation. Clayton can serve for 60 days before needing US Senate confirmation.
