WASHINGTON — Ohio’s U.S. Senators, Sherrod Brown and Rob Portman, have applauded news that President Barack Obama has nominated Carole Rendon, 53, of Solon, to serve as the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio.
Rendon, the former first assistant U.S. attorney, has been acting U.S. Attorney for the Cleveland-based district, which includes the Akron, Youngstown and Toledo areas, since Steven Dettelbach’s resignation in February.
Brown and Portman recommended her nomination to the Obama administration. Her nomination will now be subject to U.S. Senate confirmation.
