The Trump administration has withdrawn Adam Boehler’s nomination to serve as presidential envoy for hostage affairs.

On Friday, the White House confirmed the decision but noted Boehler would still work for the president.

“Adam Boehler will continue to serve President Trump as a special government employee focused on hostage negotiations,” White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.

Boehler, who has been attempting to obtain the release of hostages held by Hamas in Gaza, will continue hostage-related work as a “special government employee,” a position that does not require Senate confirmation. 

“Adam played a critical role in negotiating the return of Marc Fogel from Russia. He will continue this important work to bring wrongfully detained individuals around the world home,” Leavitt said. 

In January, Trump appointed Boehler as special presidential envoy for hostage problems, but his confirmation hearing has yet to be scheduled.
