Trump Nominates Kurt Alme as U.S. Attorney for Montana

May 10, 2025

President Donald Trump has nominated Kurt Alme to serve as the U.S. Attorney for Montana, a move that has garnered strong support from Montana’s U.S. Senators Steve Daines and Tim Sheehy. Alme, who previously held the position during Trump’s first administration, brings extensive experience and a proven track record to the role.
Senator Steve Daines praised the nomination, stating, “There is no better pick than Kurt Alme to serve as our next U.S. Attorney for Montana. Kurt has an exceptional track record, having served as our U.S. Attorney during the first Trump administration and an extensive background working hand in hand with law enforcement. He will do an outstanding job cracking down on drug trafficking and crime, protecting our indigenous communities and upholding the rule of law. I look forward to confirming his nomination in the U.S. Senate as soon as possible.”
Senator Tim Sheehy echoed Daines’ enthusiasm, saying, “Kurt Alme has my full confidence to once again serve our state proudly as Montana’s U.S. Attorney. I know Kurt is committed to keeping our streets safe from deadly drugs and violent crime, enforcing the rule of law, and seeking justice for missing and murdered indigenous persons, and I look forward to voting to confirm him in the Senate.”
Alme’s nomination comes at a time when Montana faces challenges related to drug trafficking, violent crime, and issues affecting indigenous communities. His prior tenure as U.S. Attorney demonstrated a commitment to addressing these concerns, earning him bipartisan respect. The Senate is expected to move swiftly to confirm Alme, with both Daines and Sheehy emphasizing the urgency of his appointment to strengthen law enforcement efforts in the state.
The nomination awaits Senate approval, with a confirmation hearing anticipated in the coming weeks.
