HISTORIC! KBJ Confirmed!

Dear Friends,

It's with great pride and joy that I write today after the Senate confirmed Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson yesterday to serve as the next Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court.

I was in the Senate Chamber as the historic vote unfolded.

The confirmation of the eminently qualified Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson as the first Black woman to serve on the nation's highest court is a historic achievement and a testament to how far we, as a nation, have come. I'm sure that Dr. King, who was assassinated 54 years and four days ago, beams with pride as our nation lives out the true meaning of its creed – that all men and women are created equal. I congratulate Judge Jackson and her family. The nation thanks her for her service and we look forward to a long, distinguished career on the Supreme Court.

As always, I appreciate your time and feedback. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to represent you in Congress. If you have an issue with a federal government agency, please don't hesitate to call my district office at 770-987-2291.
