Dallas (WBAP/KLIF) The two U.S. Senators from Texas are applauding President Donald Trump for nominating Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court. U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) told “CNN Tonight with Don Lemon” that Gorsuch’s nomination is “an absolute home run.”
Cruz went on to say, “this is a judge who for a decade has proven a record of following the law.” He also urged Democrats not to filibuster Gorsuch’s nomination.
In a written statement, U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) said, “Judge Gorsuch is an excellent choice to serve as our next Supreme Court Justice. A jurist of the highest caliber, he has served with distinction and a demonstrated commitment to the rule of law.”
Cornyn also said, “I’m confident that Judge Gorsuch will follow Justice Scalia’s example, adhering to the Constitution and fairly applying the law on behalf of all Americans.”
Judge Gorsuch was unanimously confirmed by voice vote on July 20th, 2006 for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit. He was appointed by Former President George W. Bush.
