Cornyn Statement on Judge Kavanaugh Hearing Announcement

Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) released the following statement after Chairman Grassley announced that the Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on Judge Brett Kavanaughs nomination to the Supreme Court beginning September 4th:

By now its clear that Judge Kavanaugh will be a fair arbiter of the law who will call balls and strikes not impose his personal beliefs or policy preferences on the American people." Both parties agree Judge Kavanaugh is exceptionally well-qualified and weve come to know him as a caring father devoted friend and charitable member of his community." Since before he was even nominated Democrats have launched one desperate attack on him after another. Theyve thrown everything at the wall and nothing has stuck." The transparent stall tactics and now thinly-veiled attacks on Judge Kavanaughs character only underscore the strength of the choice President Trump has made." I look forward to what will be a thorough and open vetting process by the Committee between now and September followed by a vote to confirm him before October 1."

Senator John Cornyn a Republican from Texas is a member of the Senate Judiciary Intelligence and Finance Committees.
