In response to Republican Senators’ repeated attacks on the first Black woman to be nominated to the Supreme Court – including Sen. Kennedy’s offensive “J. Crew catalog” remark and Sen. Collins’ hypocritical comments – Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee spokesperson Jazmin Vargas issued the following statement:
“Senate Republicans continue to smear a Supreme Court nominee who has yet to be named because of the color of her skin. These offensive and hypocritical comments show the GOP will stop at nothing as they oppose Democrats’ Supreme Court nominee. Protecting Roe v. Wade and so many other issues Americans care so deeply about are all on the line, and these kinds of comments from Republican Senators only reinforce the importance of protecting and expanding Democrats’ Senate Majority with the power to confirm Supreme Court justices.”
