WASHINGTON, DC – The Democratic Attorneys General Association (DAGA) congratulates New Jersey Attorney General Jennifer Davenport on her unanimous confirmation by the New Jersey Senate today.  

AG Davenport is a longtime public servant with over 15 years of law enforcement experience, and she has dedicated her entire career to protecting the rule of law and defending the U.S. Constitution. Before being nominated to the office, Davenport worked at the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office as First Assistant Attorney General and Principal Law Enforcement Advisor. Later, AG Davenport worked in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey, serving as the Chief of the General Crimes Unit.

“I want to officially welcome New Jersey Attorney General Jennifer Davenport to our coalition of state attorneys general. AG Davenport is a dedicated public servant with significant years of experience working to uphold the rule of law and the Constitution.
