Judge Barrett was approved unanimously by the Judiciary Committee

I’m pleased to support Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination. She has the temperament and humility we expect of a judge. She approaches cases without bias or agenda. Most important, she understands that a judge should interpret – not make – the law.

She was thorough, candid and forthright at the hearing. But when pressed on how she might rule in a case, Judge Barrett properly applied the Ginsburg Rule. She demonstrated her independence by not showing hints, previews or forecasts.
 
Judge Barrett clearly respects precedent, and she practices judicial restraint. Her judicial method is rigorous and exacting, but fair and open minded.

Unfortunately, Senate Democrats decided to “boycott” the vote on this highly qualified nominee.

Hard working Americans show up to work every day and Democrats should too. Our taxpayers deserve better.
