Florida Why Courts Matter Coalition statement on Gorsuch confirmation

Posted on April 7, 2017

fl why courts matter fwcmc
Statement from Progress Florida Executive Director Mark Ferrulo on behalf of the Florida Why Courts Matter Coalition: 
“Neil Gorsuch’s confirmation has made history for all the wrong reasons.
“This is the first time in our nation’s history that a President whose campaign and administration are under investigation by the FBI has filled a Supreme Court seat.
“It’s also the first time the Senate changed their own rules to confirm a Supreme Court nominee who couldn’t garner enough bipartisan support.
“Sen. Marco Rubio has failed Floridians by refusing to act as a check and balance on President Trump’s power. Rubio and his GOP colleagues destroyed more than 200 years of Senate rules and tradition. The result is that now we have a new Supreme Court Justice who is completely out of step with the mainstream American values of equality, fairness, religious freedom and personal privacy.
