Though it was not immediately apparent that all of them received the White House termination notices, several U.S. attorneys from Seattle to Maryland have resigned from their positions.
Current and former Justice Department attorneys say that although it is common for U.S. Attorneys to resign following a change in the presidential administration, typically the incoming administration requests their resignations rather than sending them tersely worded termination letters.
More than two dozen of Biden’s appointed U.S. Attorneys remained in their positions as of Wednesday. As of Thursday, their offices said at least three were still employed.
