With a career built on transparency, accountability, and upholding the rule of law, Patel’s qualifications are undeniable. As a federal prosecutor, he worked closely with law enforcement to dismantle international drug trafficking rings and take violent criminals off the streets.

His commitment to justice also extended to his role as a legal liaison to the Joint Special Operations Command, where he strengthened cooperation between federal, state, and local agencies to address high-stakes security challenges.

The NPA emphasized Patel’s work as Senior Counsel to the House Intelligence Committee, where he gained respect for exposing government misconduct and advocating for ethical oversight.

His record demonstrates a consistent dedication to the integrity of U.S. institutions, making him a trusted ally for law enforcement across the country.

“Kash Patel’s extensive career in national security, law enforcement, and public service has demonstrated his unwavering commitment to upholding the rule of law, defending justice, and protecting the American people,” the NPA stated.

“Patel’s proven record of leadership, expertise in counterterrorism and intelligence, and ability to navigate complex legal and operational challenges make him the ideal candidate to restore faith in the FBI’s mission and ensure it remains a steadfast ally to our nation’s police forces.”

As Chief of Staff to the Acting Secretary of Defense, Patel demonstrated leadership under pressure, handling national security issues with expertise. The NPA argued that this experience underscores his readiness to address the many challenges facing the FBI today, from counterterrorism to restoring public trust in the institution.

The endorsement comes at a critical time for the bureau, which has faced growing scrutiny over perceived bias and ethical lapses. The NPA’s call for Patel’s appointment highlights a broader demand for reform and collaboration between the FBI and law enforcement agencies nationwide.

“The law enforcement community knows that effective leadership at the FBI is essential for building public trust and enhancing coordination across all levels of policing.”

“We firmly believe that Kash Patel’s appointment as FBI Director will mark a pivotal moment for law enforcement and public safety across the United States. His leadership will bring a renewed focus on collaboration, ethical standards, and the relentless pursuit of justice.”

The National Police Association urged the Senate to confirm Patel’s nomination, stating that his leadership would deliver the bold reforms needed to secure the FBI’s future as a trusted defender of law and order.
