Brown and Voino on Supreme Court pick
Judge and U.S. Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor’s next step will be to go before the U.S. Senate for confirmation.
Here’s what our two senators think of her:
Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, said he plans to treat her fairly and review her “impartiality, integrity, legal expertise and judicial temperament.”
“It is the Senate’s role to exercise the constitutional power to advise and consent, and I look forward to fair and rigorous hearings to that end,” he said.
Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, was a little more glowing: “Judge Sotomayor will be a tough, fair, and thoughtful addition to our nation’s highest court,” he said in a statement. “She has been nominated to our courts in the past by both Republican and Democratic presidents and confirmed each time by strong bipartisan majorities. I hope we will proceed with the same bipartisan approach to this nomination.”
