BREAKING Nomination hearing begins for Ketanji Brown Jackson, first Black woman Supreme Court pick | Watch live now
WASHINGTON -- The Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday gaveled open the Supreme Court confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman nominated for the nation's highest court.
Jackson will be introduced on Monday by Thomas B. Griffith, a retired judge for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, and Lisa M. Fairfax, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School. "Representation matters," Wallace said."It's critical to have diverse experience on the bench. It should reflect the rich cultural diversity of this country."
The White House pushed back forcefully against the criticism as"toxic and weakly presented misinformation." Sentencing expert Douglas Berman, an Ohio State law professor, wrote on his blog that Jackson's record shows she is skeptical of the range of prison terms recommended for child pornography cases,"but so too were prosecutors in the majority of her cases and so too are district judges nationwide.
