Early life and education

Born in Burlington, Vermont, Nolan is a 1997 graduate of Rice Memorial High School in South Burlington.[7] She graduated summa cum laude from the University of Vermont in 2001 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science and history.[1][8] In 2004, she received her Juris Doctor degree magna cum laude from the Boston College Law School.[1] Nolan was a senior editor of the Boston College Law Review[9] and was admitted to the Order of the Coif.[10]

Career

After graduating from law school, she served as law clerk for Judge F. Dennis Saylor IV on the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts.[11]

Nolan previously served as an Assistant District Attorney in Middlesex County, Massachusetts.[1] From 2005 to 2009, Nolan worked as a litigation associate at Goodwin Procter in Boston, where she specialized in white collar criminal defense.[1] She served as an Assistant United States Attorney for the District of Vermont from 2010 to 2017.[1] Nolan was recommended for the position of U.S. Attorney by U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy and Vermont Governor Phil Scott.[12] She became the first woman to serve as U.S. Attorney for the District of Vermont.[13]

On February 8, 2021, officials of the new Biden administration requested the resignations of all but two U.S. Attorneys, as is typical for incoming presidential administrations.[14] On February 16, Nolan announced her resignation, effective February 28.[15]

In January 2022, Nolan filed candidacy paperwork with the Federal Election Commission, reflecting that she was exploring a run for the Republican nomination for U.S. Senator from Vermont in 2022.[16] On February 22, 2022, she formally announced her candidacy in an exclusive interview with Fox News, followed by release of a three-minute campaign video.[2] Despite endorsements from prominent Vermont Republicans such as incumbent Vermont governor Phil Scott and former governor Jim Douglas, Nolan lost the Republican primary to Gerald Malloy, a more conservative candidate, by a small margin.[17]

Political positions

Nolan has identified as "an independent thinker" and has expressed willingness to work across the aisle.[18] She identifies as an environmentalist and supports LGBTQ+ rights.[18] Nolan has voiced support for a public healthcare option, but she opposes Medicare for All.[18] If elected to the senate, Nolan did not commit to voting for Mitch McConnell for Republican leader.[18]

Nolan also voiced her support for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's nomination to the Supreme Court of the United States; only three Republican Senators voted to confirm her.[19]

Nolan had refused to disclose whether she voted for Donald Trump, who nominated her for U.S. Attorney,[20] stating that it might cast doubt on her impartiality.[21]

Personal Life

Nolan is gay.[22]
