Call reports. Excerpt:
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell
(R-Ky.) on Sunday said the Senate needs more time to review the record of
Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor after new material surfaced from her time
with the Puerto Rican Legal Defense and Education Fund.
“Just a day or so ago, we discovered that
there are 300 or so boxes of additional material that has just been discovered
from her time working with the Puerto Rican Legal Defense Fund,” McConnell said
in an interview on “Fox News Sunday.”
“The committee needs to have access to that
material and time to work through it so we know all the facts before we vote on
a person who is up for a lifetime job,” McConnell said.
Call
both
your senators today and urge them to slow down the important Sotomayor
nomination process so that enough time can be given to fully examining her
record and judicial philosophy. Also
tell your senators that you want them to vote against liberal, activist judges
who legislate from the bench while relying on their personal perspectives or “life
stories” rather than upholding the plain meaning of the U.S. Constitution.
