“My colleagues in the Senate did the right thing, confirming Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court. Judge Kavanaugh has led an exemplary life; as a family man and a career judge.
“His road to confirmation was paved by the most comprehensive review of a Supreme Court nominee in history; seven FBI background checks, 36 hours of testimony before the Senate, and more than 500,000 pages of Executive Branch documents – more than the last four nominees combined. I look forward to the day when common decency and civility return to our government, and the American ideal of an individual being considered innocent until proven guilty.”
