Washington,
D.C.
– Sen.
Tim
Scott
(R-SC)
released
the
following
statement
after
meeting
with
Supreme
Court
Justice
nominee,
Neil
Gorsuch:
“This
afternoon
I
had
the
pleasure
of
meeting
with
our
Supreme
Court
Justice
nominee
Neil
Gorsuch.
It
helped
to
further
reinforce
my
deep
belief
and
trust
that
he
is
more
than
suited
to
take
on
this
demanding
and
important
job.
Aside
from
his
impressive
academic
credentials
and
decades
of
experience
in
the
legal
profession,
Judge
Gorsuch
continued
to
convey
his
commitment
to
interpret
our
Constitution
as
it
was
intended
by
our
founding
fathers.
He
demonstrated
his
belief
in
an
independent
judiciary,
and
that
he
will
make
decisions
solely
based
on
our
nation’s
laws
and
how
they
are
written.
At
a
time
when
our
country
is
experiencing
some
uneasiness
and
concerns
about
trust,
we
need
a
Justice
like
Neil
Gorsuch
who
will
be
fair,
impartial,
and
consistent.
He
expressed
his
devotion
to
protecting
the
individual
liberties
that
we
are
so
blessed
to
have
as
Americans.
I
look
forward
to
supporting
Judge
Gorsuch
during
his
confirmation
process.”
