ATTORNEY GENERAL STEVEN T. MARSHALL STATEMENT ON
CONFIRMATION OF JUDGE NEIL GORSUCH TO
THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT
(MONTGOMERY) – Attorney General Steven T. Marshall applauded the U.S. Senate’s
confirmation Friday morning of Judge Neil Gorsuch to fill the U.S. Supreme Court seat
vacated by the death of Antonin Scalia.
“This is a good day for the Court, the Senate, and America,” said Attorney General
Marshall. “It is my hope and expectation that Justice Gorsuch will be a strong defender
of our constitution and his appointment will reposition the Court as a force for the rule
of law.”
