Congressman Steve Cohen (TN-09) went to the Gallery of the United States Senate this afternoon to observe the historic confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the United States Supreme Court.
Congressman Cohen made the following statement:
“I witnessed the historic vote to confirm Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson from the Senate Gallery. It was particularly fitting and inspiring to observe so many African Americans and women in the gallery whose lives will be affected by her service on the high court. It was certainly an historic day for America.
“Thurgood Marshall would look kindly on this development. It is unfortunate we came to this moment only after the reprehensible and sophomoric attacks on Judge Jackson in her confirmation hearing which were less than senatorial and certainly less than congenial.”
