Ted Cruz and John Cornyn vote no as Senate confirms Ketanji Brown Jackson to Supreme Court
According to this article on The Texas Tribune, by ANDREW ZHANG
“WASHINGTON — The U.S. Senate confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court today Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson — the first Black woman ever confirmed to the high bench. Texas’ U.S. Sens. John Cornyn and Ted Cruz voted against her nomination, joining a near-party-line vote of 53-47.
Jackson’s confirmation comes during a politically charged moment that has seen renewed scrutiny over the roles race and gender play in American society — themes that outlined some of the questions she faced during her nomination process. A Harvard-educated lawyer, she has over a decade of experience on federal benches and she has also sat on the U.S. Sentencing Commission and served as a public defender.
Cruz and Cornyn have acknowledged the historical nature of her nomination, but said her ideology could be harmful for the court and the country ahead of their votes against her.”
