Jason A. Reding Quiñones has been nominated by President Trump to lead the U.S. Attorney's Office in Miami. While he has robust credentials—previously serving as an assistant federal prosecutor and as a County judge—his nomination has raised some concerns. Notably, his record reflects poor evaluations during his time as a prosecutor, leading to a performance work plan. Additionally, his recent name change to include 'Quiñones' has drawn speculation, potentially a strategic move in Miami-Dade's diverse political landscape. He awaits confirmation by the U.S. Senate.
After receiving consistent poor evaluations, Reding was put on a performance work plan during his tenure as an assistant federal prosecutor in Miami.
Despite having notable credentials, including being a former federal prosecutor and a county judge, Reding's background raises questions about his suitability for the U.S. Attorney position.
The addition of 'Quiñones' to his name in judicial applications is seen as a strategic move within the context of Miami-Dade's demographic politics.
Reding's past evaluations as a criminal prosecutor, including criticism that led to his placement on a performance work plan, have not been highlighted in his nomination.
