When it comes to Judge Jackson's record, it is far out of the mainstream. This is a judge who, as a Justice--the odds are 100 percent, I believe, she will vote to strike down the death penalty nationwide, and she will rule repeatedly to release violent criminals, to release murderers, to release sex offenders. This is a pattern that is highly, highly disturbing. Our Democratic colleagues like to say they don't support abolishing the police. When you nominate and confirm judges who let criminals out of jail, you have the responsibility for the consequences of your actions. Judge Jackson's record is extreme, and I urge my colleagues to vote against her confirmation. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Ms. Duckworth). The Senator from Michigan.
