The independent U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom welcomed Cook as the third ambassador to oversee international religious liberty.

“We look forward to meeting her and working jointly toward our mutual goal of advancing freedom of religion or belief around the world,” said Leonard Leo, USCIRF chair.

At Cook’s second hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., cited unspecified “indications” that Cook lacked qualifications for the job.
