Alabama’s attorney general testifies against Ketanji Brown Jackson’s SCOTUS confirmation alpolitics
MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall flew to Washington, D.C., Thursday to testify against the confirmation of federal judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Marshall, invited by members of the Republican minority on the Senate Judiciary Committee, spoke on Capitol Hill regarding the significance of the nation’s highest court in regard to public safety, law and order, and the criminal justice system. “Not only does Judge Jackson’s nomination come at a time when crime and punishment is ranked as a top issue—if not the top issue—by Americans from both political parties, but she has received the strident support of activist groups with views about our criminal-justice system that are far outside the mainstream,” Marshall said in his statement.
“As we know from history, the United States Supreme Court can absolutely transform criminal justice—for better or for worse,” Marshall stated. “The Senate must now do its due diligence to ensure that the ideology of the anti-incarceration and anti-police movement—views that the Biden Administration has increasingly embraced—is never permitted to make its way onto the Supreme Court.
