ABA Gives Supreme Court Nominee Gorsuch Its Highest Rating

Statement

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley made the following statement regarding the American Bar Association (ABA) giving a "Unanimously Well Qualified" rating, the group's highest rating, to Judge Neil Gorsuch who has been nominated to be an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court.

"The ABA's ringing endorsement is no surprise given Judge Gorsuch's sterling credentials and his distinguished decade-long record on the Tenth Circuit. Former Chairman Leahy and Minority Leader Schumer have called the ABA's assessment the "gold standard' in evaluating federal judicial nominations. In light of Judge Gorsuch's impeccable record, it's hard to imagine any other result from the ABA's consideration."
