WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Roger Wicker, R-Miss., supports President Donald J. Trump’s nomination of Judge Cory T. Wilson of Flora to serve as a U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of Mississippi.

“President Trump has selected another outstanding judge from Mississippi to serve the American people,” Wicker said. “Judge Wilson’s credentials, intelligence, and respect for the rule of law are without question. He has demonstrated his commitment to our state and nation during his time as a student at the University of Mississippi and Yale Law School, a White House fellow, an accomplished lawyer, and as a state representative. He has served most recently with distinction on the Mississippi Court of Appeals. I look forward to working with my colleagues to ensure this nomination is quickly considered and approved.”
