Statement from Mayor Bowser on President Obama’s Supreme Court Nomination

Wednesday, March 16, 2016

In response to President Barack Obama’s nomination of Merrick Brian Garland to the United States Supreme Court, Mayor Muriel Bowser released the following statement:

“As chief judge of the US Court of Appeals, Judge Garland has served ably here in the District of Columbia, and has earned respect that transcends party and politics. I stand with the President, and I urge the Congress to move Judge Garland forward through a fair and judicious process. Just like the residents of the District of Columbia, Judge Garland deserves a vote in the Congress.”
