CWA: Wait and See on Supreme Court Nominee      10/3/2005

Washington, D.C. –.Concerned Women for America (CWA) expressed guarded optimism in response to President Bush’s nomination of Harriet Miers as successor to Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor.

“We give Harriet Miers the benefit of the doubt because thus far, President Bush has selected nominees to the federal courts who are committed to the written Constitution,” said Jan LaRue, CWA’s chief counsel. “Whether we can support her will depend on what we learn from her record and the hearing process,” LaRue added.

Every judicial nominee deserves a dignified hearing and nothing less than a swift, up or down vote at the conclusion of the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. The American people are entitled to fairness from judges and from senators who sit in judgment of them.
