As of January 2025, she was policy director on the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation.
Trusty’s official Senate nomination paperwork says her Commerce Committee policy-director role ended in December 2022; since January 2023 she has served on the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Full reasoning
This sentence misstates Trusty’s position in January 2025. In her official Senate Commerce Committee nomination questionnaire, Trusty listed her employment history as:
- "U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, Policy Director, January 2019 – December 2022"
- "U.S. Senate Committee on Armed Services, Professional Staff Member / Cyber Lead, January 2023 – Present"
So by January 2025, according to her own filed nomination materials, she was no longer the Commerce Committee’s policy director; she was serving on the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Trusty’s experience on both the Senate Commerce Committee and Senate Armed Services Committee provides a unique view of both commercial and national security interests in mid-band spectrum.
