Bondi latest Trump appointee announced to visit Capitol Hill next week, joining Musk, Ramaswamy

Attorney General-nominee Pam Bodi will travel to Capitol Hill next week to meet with Senate Republicans as a start to her confirmation process. 

The presidential transition team for GOP President-elect Donald Trump confirmed Bondi's visit Friday with The Washington Examiner. She will join Trump appointees Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, who are expected to meet with Republican lawmakers in the House and Senate. 

Trump nominated Bondi, a former Florida GOP attorney general, after former Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz withdrew his name from consideration last week. 

Trump appointed Musk and Ramaswamy to head his new Department of Government Efficiency. They are expected on Capitol Hill, in Washington, D.C., on Thursday. Their appointments do not require Senate confirmation. 

Bondi is expected to meet Monday with Iowa GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley, who will be the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee during the upcoming congressional session, also according to The Examiner. The Judiciary committee will hold the confirmation hearings for Bondi.

“Attorney General Nominee Bondi is looking forward to the confirmation process and answering any questions senators might have,” Trump's presidential transition spokesman Alex Pfeiffer told the news outlet. “Attorney General Nominee Bondi’s life has been dedicated to keeping Americans safe. She looks forward to continuing that work at the Department of Justice.”

GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson said Wednesday the meetings with entrepreneurs Musk and Ramaswamy will focus on "major reform ideas to achieve regulatory rescissions, administrative reductions, and cost savings—& revive the principle of limited government."
