Clayton Clears Hurdle for DNI Role | Portland Maine News
Description
Senate Intelligence Committee gives Jay Clayton the green light for Director of National Intelligence in a close 9-8 vote, clearing the way for his full Senate confirmation. Clayton, previously backed by some Democrats during his SEC nomination, replaces Bill Pulte, who faced criticism for potential misuse of intelligence resources. With committee chair Tom Cotton pushing hard, Clayton’s nomination is seen as critical to restoring a key counterterrorism tool — and the full Senate’s vote will be the next big test.
