Absolutely yes, Senator Sessions. That is how I have conducted myself as a State trial court judge and how I intend to conduct myself as a United States district court judge, if I am fortunate enough to be confirmed.
A lack of diversity on the bench contributes to mistrust of the justice system in many minority communities.
I have always been able to set aside my personal feelings and beliefs and emotions and adhere to the law in every case.
