Manchin Opposes Dale Ho Nomination for New York District Court

Washington, DC – Today, U.S. Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) released the following statement on his decision to vote against Dale Ho’s nomination to be a judge on the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

“Mr. Ho’s prior inflammatory statements make me doubt whether he can be impartial when interpreting the Constitution. Hateful words and partisanship should never be characteristics of someone on a federal bench and, for this reason, I have voted against Mr. Ho’s nomination.”
