Biden to Celebrate Historic Supreme Court Confirmation

April 8, 2022 · 12:02 pm ET · Leave a Comment

White House officials said on Friday that they had invited the judge’s family, all current and former Supreme Court justices and three Republicans — Senators Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Mitt Romney of Utah — who voted with Democrats on Thursday to confirm Judge Jackson, lending a modicum of bipartisanship to an otherwise bitterly polarized process.”
