Judicial Nominee’s Law Firm Gave $150K to Reid PAC

As Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) was considering Las Vegas attorney Jennifer Dorsey for a federal judgeship, two partners at her law firm made $150,000 in contributions to a political action committee associated with the Nevada senator, the Las Vegas Review Journal reports.

“While apparently legal, the donations were called ‘problematic’ by a legal expert, who said they could be perceived as attempting to buy a judicial appointment as Dorsey’s confirmation is pending before the Senate.”
