U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) made the following statement after voting against the confirmation of Judge Jackson to be the next Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States:
“Today, I voted against confirming Judge Jackson to the Supreme Court,” Inhofe said. “While I believe that Judge Jackson is a fine person, her record lends itself to an all but certain future of judicial activism. This, coupled with her evasiveness during the hearings and staunch support from abortion advocates, disqualify her from serving on the high court. President Biden appears intent on going down in history as our nation’s most far-left president—the confirmation of Judge Jackson has only solidified this sad truth.”
On March 31, 2022, Inhofe met with Judge Jackson and voiced his intent to vote against her confirmation.
