Coming from an immigrant background and stepping into a pivotal role as the first Asian American U.S. attorney for the nation's 7th largest district, Hamdani has received lauding support from colleagues and senate officials.

In a press release by the Attorney's Office a couple of months before he was sworn in, Hamdani was described as a dedicated man of the law. To then be serving as the chief law enforcement officer in the nation's 7th largest district, was an enormous responsibility but one that many believed he was ready for. In fact, aside from being the 24th presidentially-appointed attorney for the SDTX, he received a lauding recommendation from U.S. Senators John Cornyn and Ted Cruz.

One thing I'm going to do as the US attorney, we all do as AUSAs, is we're going to follow the facts," he said. "We will follow, we will prosecute without favor, without fear. It doesn't matter what political party, anybody may be a part of….We're going to make sure that our public officials adhere to the law, and the standards that they're expected to adhere to, just as I, of course, will.

However, he noted that among the busy tasks Hamdani has at hand, some of his top priorities include tackling violent crime, national security issues, and especially drug crimes. "The big thing I'm looking at is what is harming our citizens?" he said. "What's killing? What's causing them harm? If I could prioritize that, that's what I want to go after." Coming from an immigrant background and now stepping into a pivotal role as the first Asian American U.S. attorney for SDTX, Hamdani noted how his diversity does work to an advantage in terms of analyzing and empathizing cases.

"As an immigrant, as a person of color, I have an experience that I think is valuable to bring, when I'm looking at cases when analyzing cases when analyzing problems," he said. "To be good as an AUSA, you've got to have the emotional smarts and book smarts, all the things that it takes, I think to be a good human being what it takes to be a good federal prosecutor."
