Statement

Date: Sept. 26, 2020
Issues: Judicial Branch

U.S. Senator Martha McSally (R-AZ) released the following statement regarding the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.

"Judge Amy Coney Barrett is a highly qualified nominee, who I look forward to meeting with and evaluating in the upcoming weeks," McSally said. "Judge Barrett is highly esteemed in the legal community and has extensive judicial experience, including serving as a federal judge on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals and clerking for Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. She was confirmed to the 7th Circuit in a bipartisan vote in 2017. It is the President's duty to nominate Supreme Court justices and it is the Senate's duty to advise and consent based on who will faithfully interpret our nation's laws and Constitution. After a thorough review of Judge Barrett's merits, the Senate should vote without delay on her nomination."
