President Trump is set to announce his nominee to fill the vacant Supreme Court seat this evening and it will be interesting to see who Tammy Baldwin sides with on the decision.
Remember, Tammy spent most of last year saying just how important it is to have a full Court. Her fellow liberal colleagues have made it clear they plan to filibuster President Trump’s pick for the Supreme Court so will she join them? Or will she put her liberal agenda aside and stand by her words from just months ago?
Baldwin’s previous statements on SCOTUS vacancies:
In April 2016, Baldwin Spoke At A “Weed Need Nine” Rally.
(Weed Need Nine, Facebook Page, 4/5/16)
Baldwin: “The American People Need To Have A Full And Functioning Court” And “Not An Empty Seat On The Highest Court In The Land.”
“After the meeting, Baldwin continued to push for nomination hearings for the appeals court judge. ‘The American people need to have a full and functioning court,’ she said. ‘Not an empty seat on the highest court in the land.’” (Laurel White, “Tammy Baldwin Meets With Supreme Court Nominee Merrick Garland,” Wisconsin Public Radio, 4/14/16)
