As news coverage highlights how “Republicans struggle for an effective attack on Ketanji Brown Jackson,” Senate Republicans are now attacking interracial marriage, contraceptives, Roe v. Wade, and same-sex marriage – sketching a “terrifying vision for America” that reinforces the stakes of protecting and expanding our Democratic Senate majority.
Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee spokesperson Nora Keefe: “Republicans have shown they will use every tired and offensive excuse to try and block Judge Jackson’s historic and qualified nomination to serve on the Supreme Court. Their relentless attacks on Judge Jackson and Americans’ most basic freedoms reinforces the stakes of this year’s election and why we must defend and expand our Democratic Senate majority with the power to confirm Supreme Court justices.”
