Chris Van Hollen (D - MD) Definitely No
TweetContact Senator Van Hollen
August 15: Even though he opposed Judge Kavanaugh, Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D., Md.), who is leading the Senate Democrats’ campaign arm this cycle, isn’t pushing his colleagues to stand together, which they would need to do to block the nomination. Instead, he wants them to listen to voters. “I think we should defeat Kavanaugh but that’s my opinion and every senator will have to make up his or her own mind,” he said in an interview.

July 9: People in Maryland and across the country need and deserve a Supreme Court justice who will stand up for liberty and justice for all — not someone pre-selected by right-wing groups who consistently sides with powerful special interests over the rights of workers, consumers, and individuals. Brett Kavanaugh simply does not meet that basic standard, and I cannot support his nomination to the Supreme Court. (senate.gov)
