Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Ted Budd (R-N.C.) released the following statement announcing the upcoming departure of his Chief of Staff Tucker Knott.
“Tucker Knott is a true son of North Carolina, and I am grateful for his many years of faithful service in my office, to our State, and to the Congress. For more than a decade, Tucker has provided invaluable advice to Representatives and Senators, particularly within the North Carolina Congressional Delegation. His strong moral compass, political instincts, and personal relationships on and off the hill were critical to the success of our office over the last three years. Tucker has grown to be a close friend, and I know his positive impact will continue to be felt as he enters the private sector. I look forward to continuing to call on his counsel long into the future,” said Senator Budd.
“I am thankful that Ryan Alban will continue to serve my office and step into the role of Chief of Staff. Over the last several years, Ryan has held key leadership positions as a member of the team, proving himself as a dedicated public servant, strong legislative mind, and thoughtful leader,” Senator Budd added.
Ryan Alban promoted to Chief of Staff. Ryan previously served as Deputy Chief of Staff, Legislative Director, and National Security Advisor for Senator Budd. Before joining Sen. Budd’s staff, he served as an Infantry Officer in the Army, including a combat tour to Afghanistan, and has held roles as an Army Legislative Liaison to the Senate, Defense Fellow for Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO), and Legislative Liaison for the National Guard to both the House and Senate.
