The Ayes are 53, the Nays are 47. And this nomination is confirmed.

On this vote, the yeas are 53, the nays are 47. And it’s nomination is confirmed.

I am overjoyed and deeply moved. There is still so much yet to accomplish. And that we can accomplish, including on a day like today that is so historic and so important for so many reasons. And I do believe it is a very important…

I definitely think that the court needs to take a critical look at its rules around ethics.
