Ben Nelson press release: NELSON SUPPORTS ALITO FOR SUPREME COURT
Edited on Fri Jan-11-08 07:34 PM by Proud2BAmurkin

“I have decided to vote in favor of Judge Samuel Alito to serve as the 110th Justice of the United States Supreme Court. I came to this decision after careful consideration of his impeccable judicial credentials, the American Bar Association's strong recommendation and his pledge that he would not bring a political agenda to the Court.”

Last year, Senator Nelson was a leader among the group of Senators that developed a resolution to the partisan impasse over judicial nominations. That agreement cleared a number of President Bush’s nominees that were being blocked by filibuster while preserving the Senate’s rules and traditions.

Nelson served as Nebraska’s Governor from 1991 to 1999. During his two terms, Nelson appointed the entire Nebraska Supreme Court, the entire Nebraska Court of Appeals, and more than half of the sitting judges in Nebraska. Since elected to the United States Senate in 2000, Nelson has supported more than 215 of President Bush’s nominations to the Federal Bench, including Chief Justice John Roberts.
