Sen. Warner on retirement of Justice Kennedy

Chris Graham

mark warnerU.S. Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) released the following statement on the retirement of Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy.

“I am grateful to Justice Kennedy for his many decades of service to our country, and wish him all the best in his retirement.

“In just four months, the American people will determine the makeup of the United States Senate. Given the precedent set by Leader McConnell in 2016, it is only appropriate that the Senate wait until the new Congress is seated to consider any nomination to the Supreme Court.”
