- Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch is heading back to Capitol Hill
today for a second day of confirmation hearings. During Monday’s
hearing, Democratic senators repeatedly criticized Gorsuch’s record, as
well as their Republican counterparts for refusing to take up the
nomination of President Obama’s pick, Merrick Garland, to replace the
late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Judge Neil Gorsuch has a long
history of ruling against employees in cases involving federal race,
sex, age, disability and political discrimination and retaliation
claims. For more, we speak with Ian Millhiser, senior fellow at the
Center for American Progress Action Fund and editor of ThinkProgress
Justice. His recent piece is headlined "The Judge Gorsuch who spoke in
the Senate today is nothing like the man who wrote his opinions."
