Lonegan Urges Senators Not to Sign Off on Christie Supreme Court Picks Unless Nominees Reject Judicial Activism
BOGOTA, NJ – Steve Lonegan, Americans for Prosperity State Director, today urged seven State Senators whose “sign off” is required for two State Supreme Court nominees to have hearings, not to give their approval unless the two nominees reject the concept of judicial activism that has been the Court’s hallmark.
The seven state Senators include four from Bergen County who must sign off on Phillip Kwon’s nomination, two from Morris County who must sign off on Mayor Bruce Harris’s nomination, and Senator Tom Kean (R-21) from Union County whose district includes Harris’s home town of Chatham Borough.
No hearings can occur on the nominees until the Senators all sign off on the nominations. “They are the first line of review here, and we’re urging them to take their responsibility seriously,” he added.
