WASHINGTON  — President Donald Trump chose Brett Kavanaugh, a solidly conservative, politically connected judge, for the Supreme Court. Most members of the Kansas congressional delegation expressed support for the choice.

Congrats to Judge Kavanaugh on his nomination to the #SCOTUS. I take my responsibility of ‘advice and consent’ very seriously & look forward to the @senjudiciary‘s thorough vetting of his record. I look forward to mtg Judge Kavanaugh & hope for a fair confirmation process.

I applaud Pres. Trump’s nomination of Judge Kavanaugh to serve on the SCOTUS. The president delivered on his promise to nominate a justice who will respect the Constitution, uphold the rule of law and defend the unborn & the 2nd amendment. Full statement: https://t.co/XXtNS7s5Jb
