Feingold to support Kagan nomination
U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold said today he would support the nomination of Solicitor General Elena Kagen to the U.S. Supreme during the Senate Judiciary Committee's confirmation vote next week.
"During the Judiciary Committee’s recent hearings, Solicitor General Kagan demonstrated a keen mind and a wide-ranging command of the law," Feingold, D-Middleton, said in a statement. "I appreciated her efforts to improve the confirmation process, which she fairly criticized in an article more than a decade ago, by trying to answer Senators’ questions as openly and comprehensively as possible."
