U.S Sen. John Boozman of Arkansas, a Republican, said Friday he will vote against President Biden’s nominee for the U.S Supreme Court, Ketanji Brown Jackson.
The Senate Judiciary Committee has been holding hearings this week on her nomination. On Tuesday and Wednesday Jackson took questions from members of the committee, including Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas. Boozman isn’t a member of the committee, but the full Senate is expected to eventually vote on the nomination. A simple majority is needed to confirm her nomination.
