"Brett M. Kavanaugh has demonstrated legal excellence and the fair-minded temperament to serve as a federal appellate judge."

"I'm confident that Mike Hayden will continue the reforms that Porter has put in place and provide outstanding leadership."

"Throughout his career, Mr. Kavanaugh has shown a dedication to the legal profession and the rule of law."
