Statement on Vote on Debo Adegbile

Mar 05 2014

“Our constitutional system is based on the principle that everyone is entitled to effective legal counsel. This nominee, like U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts when he was a lawyer, has provided legal counsel for people who have committed horrible crimes. I believe you do not reject a qualified nominee because they provided representation to a client whose crimes we find reprehensible.”
