Washington, D.C. – Congressman Tom Emmer (MN-06) sent the following release after the Senate confirmed Judge Neil Gorsuch to the United States Supreme Court:

“Today is a great day for the United States. I applaud the confirmation of Judge Neil Gorusch as the next justice to the highest court of the land. Throughout his career, Gorsuch has proven himself as an incredible intellect who will be steadfast in his commitment to this great nation and the rule of law. For this reason, it is no surprise that the American Bar Association awarded Gorsuch its highest rating. I am confident he will uphold and defend the Constitution as our Founding Fathers intended and is the best person to follow in the footsteps to fill the vacancy left by the late Antonin Scalia.”
