Washington D.C.--Congressman John Rose took to the House floor to express his concerns with U.S. Supreme Court Nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson.
The full speech, as prepared for delivery, is below:
Mister Speaker, since before taking office, President Biden and his far-left base have openly expressed their interest in expanding the Supreme Court to create a super-legislature filled with un-elected, liberal justices determined to do the job of Congress and legislate from the bench.
After watching the nomination proceedings, I have no doubt that Judge Jackson will be exactly that—a rubber stamp for President Biden’s agenda—not an impartial justice who interprets the constitution how it’s written. I believe Judge Jackson’s repeated leniency in federal sentencing cases towards prisoners in Guantanamo Bay, child sex offenders, and convicted criminal drug traffickers gives us a window into her activist judicial philosophy and renders her unsuitable to serve on the highest court.
On behalf of my neighbors in Middle Tennessee, I urge both of our Tennessee Senators to vote “no” on confirming Judge Jackson.
